I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

Running a Duplicacy container backing up to Google drive for some stuff and Backblaze for mostly all other data. Been using it for a couple years with no issues. The GUI and scheduling is really nice too.

All my backups are in /home/Ryan/Documents. Please don't break my Minecraft server.

Zfs z2 pool . Not a perfect backup, but it covers disk failure (already lost one disk with no data loss), and accidental file deletion. I'm vulnerable to my house burning down, but overall I sleep well enough.

Three copies. The data on your server.

  1. Buy a giant external drive and back up to that.

  2. Off site. Backblaze is very nice

How to get your data around? Free file sync is nice.

Veeeam community version may help you too

Veeam backup and recovery notnfor retail license covers up to 10 workloads. I then s3 offsite to backblaze

But tl;dr of that:

  • OS backed up with timeshift
  • Data backed up with both snapraid on the data drive pool and then also borg to other drives+devices+locations

  • kopia backup to 2nd disk
  • kopia backup to B2 cloud
  • duplicaty backup to google drive (only most important folder <1GB)

Most of the files are actually nextcloud so I get one more copy of files (not backup) on PC by syncing with nextcloud app
