I’ve been considering paying for a European provider, mounting their service with rclone, and thus being transparent to most anything I host.

How do y’all backup your data?

    Local to synology. Synology to AWS with synology’s backup app. It costs me pennies per day.

      Same, although aws is my plan b. For plan a I have an older Synology that is a full backup target.

        On site? I put enterprise drives in my nas. Always have and have never had a drive fail. If one does, raid is good until the replacement arrives.

          Raid is no backup. Raid helps you against drive failure.

          Backup helps you if you or some script screwed up your data, or you need to go back to last months version of a file for whatever other reason.

          Aws helps if your house burns down and you need to set up again from scratch.
