My setup is pretty safe. Every day it copies the root file system to its RAID. It copies them into folders named after the day of the week, so I always have 7 days of root fs backups. From there, I manually backup the RAID to a PC at my parents’ house every few days. This is started from the remote PC so that if any sort of malware infects my server, it can’t infect the backups.
Off-site backups that are still local is brilliant.
I feel like there are better ways to do this but it isn't terrible
Better than losing it all
Pretty solid backup strategy :) I like it.
