The other time was before I had my laptop backing up properly and had no backup to restore when I RM'd a link using the wrong syntax, leaving the link and deleting the original. I had to rebuild the partition table by hand to restore it, lost one file. The first one almost two decades ago when a server drive thoroughly trashed its directory AND the backup drive somehow completely wiped its partition table. And I still need to improve my offsite storage.

I have yet to need to do a full system restore. (at the time, that took almost 3 days to copy back) So far I've needed to dig into time machine on a few occasions for something that got changed or corrupted on my laptop, and I've had to restore a 23gb photo library container to a computer 300 miles away due to operator error. Last I counted, I had in excess of 25 TB total online storage under the roof. The backup server also uses rsync over the internet to back up a few other computers. That server also backs up its own boot drive, as well as several other computers in the building, in addition to all the server volumes. I also have a sophisticated custom bash script running rsync to an onsite backup server. My primary laptop has a Time Machine drive attached to it (which uses Rsync under the hood), I replace the drive every 2 years or so, removed goes into cold storage as long-term incremental backups.

They're interested in "what other Slashdotters use," as well as "why and what your experience has been given more than superficial testing." So share you own thoughts in the comments. Rclone for uploading to business cloud storage, versioned cloud storage to provide resistance against bitrot and other corruption. My current solution is Unixy: separate tools for separate jobs.

leaking file names), outrageously expensive, hard to set up, tied to a single storage supplier I don't fully trust, entirely proprietary (which makes me doubt long term stability), lack of file history, reputation for slowness, and so on. I found most of the methods generally had one or more of the following problems: poor Linux support, weak security (e.g. I moved away from the "bunch of disks with some off site" method.

Then select Create archive to generate your library."I am curious as to what other Slashdotters use for backing up of home machines," asks long-time Slashdot reader serviscope_minor: On the next screen, you’ll be able to choose the delivery method, file type, and archive size, as well as how often you want to receive a copy of your archive. Click the checkbox and then scroll down to Next step. There are quite a few categories to choose from, but you’ll want to deselect them all and look for Google Photos.

To get started, head over to the Data & Personalization tab in your Google Account, scroll down and select Download your Data. To back upo your full Google Photos library, you’re going to need to download an archive first. It’s not quite as quick or seamless as the Google Drive sync, but it’ll do the trick. If you want to make sure you have a backup of your photos in addition to the one on Google Photos, you can still download a complete copy of your Google Photos archive though the Google Takeout service.

Any new images and videos on your PC will be available through Google Drive. It’s not a two-way street like the current Google Photos-Google Drive integration-meaning you’ll need to upload photos and videos to both places-but you can pick individual folders to automatically sync as soon as you fire up your PC. Backup and Syncįor years, Google has offered a Backup and Sync app for Macs and PCs that lets you easily sync photos and videos from your desktop to your Google Drive or Google Photos. And if you delete a photo from one place, the other will remain. Once something is uploaded to Google Photos, it will live in two places and take up twice the storage. Similar to the “Upload” button and the drag-and-drop method, it will let you select photos and videos directly from your Google Drive and import them into Photos.

Google has added a new feature to Google Photos called Upload from Drive.
