Inexpensive NAS for over 4TB backups - recommendations?
To date, we've backed up our ReadyNAS Pros using cheap USB drives. This has served us well over the past three years but as we move forward to much larger disks and volume capacity, I'm rethinking thi...
Now that I have our Pro backup properly setup and working with Rsync, I have a question about snapshots on the 104:
Frontview Rsync has an option to remove deleted files on the target (i.e. the 104)
Which would be a better overall backup strategy -
1) leave "remove deleted files on target" setting OFF so that backup files accumulate on the 104
or
2) turn "remove deleted files on target" setting ON so that 104 backup mirrors the Pro. Then use daily snapshots on 104 to preserve deleted data in case it's needed.
Any thoughts/recommendations on the pluses/minuses of either method? Thanks!
