I’m setting up my 1-2-3 backup for the first time today, actually. It’ll be nice knowing that my years of art projects and collected media will finally be safe from just about anything.

OMV for the host.

  • RAID 5 (4x1TB)
  • Weekly incremental internal drive backup
  • Weekly external backup in a firesafe box

I’m just doing the RAID setup today should have the rest done by the end of the month.

Is that firesafe box in somebody else's house though? I'd be worried about not having true offsite no matter how protected.

Ideally, yes, but don’t know anyone that would be willing to put up with the hassle of it. I’m in a single story building on the outside corner, so unless a plane lands on it, I should be alright.
