Neat! Sounds exactly what im looking for. Thanks.

That was My thinking. What did you use to backup? Rsync?

Exactly! I have a few harddisks in a drawer with my actual backup. I just want to get off that haphazzard backup system.

Hi! I need some advice and recommendations about long term backup. I've had an Unraid server running for about a year now, and love the simplicity of setting up and maintaining Unraid. But now I've outgrown the old hardware and am planning to upgrade to something beefier. (Right now 2core/4threads and 4 gigs of RAM) It runs fine, but not really suited for VMs or anything that requires any RAM at all. I have a lot (140ish gigs) of family photos on the server, and a lot of other stuff I'd rather not loose. I'm not worried about transferring the disks to new hardware, but I'm rather thinking of adding redundancy. The saying goes that any single NAS server isn't really a good backup. The Question now is. Should I just get a second Unraid Key and setup the new server on that, keeping the old one as a backup, or are there other solutions that you'd recommend as a more long term solution? I'm thinking that backing up about once a week should be more than enough for my needs.
