Backup with always attached external USB drive


Recommended Posts

Hey there guys. 

 

How do you back up your data? My data is on a RAID1 ZFS pool anyway. But probably a backup on an external medium still makes sense. Unfortunately I have no way to store the data outside my home. My idea now is to permanently connect an external USB hard drive. But this should now consume power or turn on when I perform a backup.

I thought of something like Syncthing, which I have in use anyway. But that should only trigger when I have set it to backup quasi like a cronjob.
