I'm setting up a NAS to sore my data on.
Right now I only have about 8TB of data... so I can keep a copy of it on my machine and on two USB externals that I store in a fire place safe and in a remote location.
I will soon not be able to use this method due to the total amount of data I have. (a. my pc will not have the storage to hold a copy, and my externals will not have the storage to hold copies... unless have 4 total externals to split the data into two total copies which seems like a nightmare)
.......
So I'm going to build a NAS to store one full copy of my data on Raidz2 TrueNAS CORE (as well as cloud access/plex/etc). How do yall recommend having a backup of this NAS?
Do I now have to build another NAS to backup my main NAS and keep it offsite? How do yall do this? Do you just create a large bank of HDDs for a beefy external and store this offsite?
.....
Bonus question... since I'm a NAS noob. What level of protection do I have if my NAS is physically stolen?
Cheers,
