parsec Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Background is that we recently moved a daughter from a regular windows laptop to a Chromebook/Google Drive/Photos setup. She will access those data from her chrome book, phone, tablet and a browser at work. Lots of pros and cons. Now we would like to setup an automated backup of her data placed at Google Drive/Photos. It is not a lot, just about 80G. Manual exports, or trusting that Google never fails, is not in scope Anyone with a good idea for this? Quote Link to comment
parsec Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 The workaround is very manual. A Firefox Docker on Unraid. Every time daughter visits, she uses the Firefox to order Takeout on Google, set it to download the files and close her browser, while the docker'ed Firefox continue the download of takeout files. Rather manual, but very simple and takes only but a few minutes. Effort/Risk ratio is good. 1 Quote Link to comment
chansearrington Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 @parsec have you looked into Duplicati or rClone for this? I don't know much about either, but I'm about to look into doing the same for OneDrive Offload to Unraid. Quote Link to comment
parsec Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 @chansearrington If you find them to be useful for backing up Google or MS hosted files directly from Google or MS, let me know Quote Link to comment
juan11perez Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 i've got onedrive and gdrive mounted on my unraid using rclone. There's a space invader video on 'how to'. once mounted you could set up a script to copy your content from the mount to your designated share. Quote Link to comment
gigo90 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Hi guys, I'm a UnRaid "new fresh user" after a long time spent on search and read this forum, finally I found this thread. I tried the solution with windows VM, for Google Backup. Now the point is Google is not "happy" with network folders (in my case, sheared from UnRaid array). I can use only a local folder inside the VM) Any suggestion to solve this issue? Did anyone had the same problem? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment
