Unraid to Backblaze

Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 31 points – 11 months ago

For those of you running Unraid and backing up their data to Backblaze, how are you doing it?

I’ve been playing a bit with KopiaUI but what is the easiest and most straight forward way?

Bonus points if I can have the same “client/software/utility” backup data from non-servers (Windows, macOS and Linux) in my network to said Unraid server.

I don’t want to complicate the setup with a bunch of dependencies and things that would make the recovery process long and tedious or require in-depth knowledge to use it for the recovery process.

To recap:

Workstations/laptop > back up data with what? > Unraid

Unraid > back up data with what? > Backblaze

I’ve mostly stayed away from duplicati because of the “horror stories” around restore operations. Quotes because sometimes people exaggerate but other times they are legitimate concerns/bad experiences.

@lal309 @Limit I tried duplicati but now use #restic -

That's fair, we should all test our backups from time to time. I haven't had any issues over the years with it though i've never had to rely on it for a full restore.
