What are your offsite backup solutions

maya329@lemmy.world to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 87 points –

I've been backing up to a dedicated hard disk within the same server for all my backups in case my disks fail. And as I run more and more services, the concern of disks failures grow bigger.

I'm looking for a cheapish off-site backup solution and I'm just curious what everyone does for their 3-2-1 backup solutions.

I run a Windows 10 vm that shares a drive with samba, I borg/kopia backup everything to it, and it runs the backblaze client which then backs up to Backblaze personal backup.

Oh, that's neat one. Do you keep the VM running always to make the backups work?

Out of laziness yeah, but it could probably pretty easily be set up to turn it off and on when needed, since you can schedule when the Backblaze backs up.
