    Automatic backups of my most precious data. Photos, project work, important documents. Some are backed up weekly and some monthly but all automatic. Archived onto a separate partition, copied to external HDD, and then uploaded to cloud storage.

      Which cloud storage do you recommend? I’m using syncthing on my phone to a separate HDD on my PC as well as rsync my home partition nightly from my home folder to that HDD.

        Right now I’m using OneDrive because I have a decent chunk of storage that comes with my family office 365 plan. However, I am hoping to not renew that plan when it comes due, and I’m not yet sure what other provider I’m going to switch to, so this is mostly an unhelpful answer lol.

          I’m looking into getting some kind of cold storage just in case my drive fails. It’s a 1.5 TB drive but I only have about 50gb on it right now.

            Look at backblaze b2. Combined with restic over a scheduled bash script, it’s handled mine for many years now at a fair price
