Feedback on backup idea
Hello, I just had a strange idea for using an NAS system as backup location. It's not about backing up the NAS, but about backing up a central windows Server onto the NAS. I know that misusing RA...
Depends on what you consider a high speed connection, we're at pretty decent speeds for downstream, but the asynchronous in ADSL is a big A.
We've got 1 Mbit/s upstream and 16 Mbit/s downstream, upgrades available are 1/50 and 2/100 or an SDSL line with 2 Mbit/s max for both up and downstream.
The current amount of data is somewhere around 350GB and there's about 200 Megabyte per Week increased storage need. Not sure about how much data really changes (i.e. deletions and modifications to existing data), might be a few megs more, but that's nothing the connection couldn't handle.
For an online backup service we'd probably need to send them a harddisk for the initial backup, otherwise the backup will block the line for 2 months straight.
