Nightly backups to a repurposed qnap running pbs. I'm fully aware it's overkill but it gives me some peace of mind.
I opted weekly so I could store longer time periods. If I want to go a month back I just need 4 instead of 30. At least that was the main Idea. I've definitely realized I fucked something up weeks ago without noticing before lol.
I've got PBS setup to keep 7 daily backups and 4 weekly backups. I used to have it retaining multiple monthly backups but realized I never need those and since I sync my backups volume to B2 it was costing me $$.
What I need to do is shop around for a storage VM in the cloud that I could install PBS on. Then I could have more granular control over what's synced instead the current all-or-nothing approach. I just don't think I'm going to find something that comes in at B2 pricing and reliability.
