| schestowitz | Ah, well... overcomplicating things scared me. I work with glusterfs (at work) sometimes). For backups I make extensive use of split and tar (GNU). Keeping it simple and universal to re-assembled backup 'stacks'. I have some blog posts about it somewhere... | Jan 04 06:02 |

| schestowitz | My most important data weighs at 70 GB + 100 GB or so for photographs. I back those up periodically to two external drives and sometimes give a friend another 'offsite' backup in case of fire etc. Last very major data loss was almost 20 years ago. | Jan 04 06:02 |
