1 year agoI stash my second janky NAS with my family in another part of the country. I ask my sibling to keep it powered on every week or so then shut it down after a couple minutes. If my main data storage near the capital city goes kaput, I’d phone my sibling to bring me my entire NAS (all expenses paid) immediately. My main stash is in my office which is only 10’ commute
Kinda-sorta…? The most sensitive data was more like 5-3-1: 5 copies (in my twin laptops, in my HDD-based NAS, one in my mobile external HDD, and one ‘offsite’ with my family back in my hometown). Then for my work data it was 3-2-1: main laptop, my NAS backup, and offsite (updated every holiday). For entertainment which are mostly loot from the seven seas, 2.5-1 rule: I stash bulk of them in my NAS (which I mostly stream to my laptop) and copy what I need to share with folks to the mobile HDD) and the other copy is also offsite
