Stumbling through getting a proper backup regime in place. I have an unraid system running a proper array, and am trying to setup backups for two separate machines (one windows one debian). I’ve successfully setup a file share, and have duplicati running. Are there disadvantages to just setting the network folder as the destination for the backup? It seems a little hamfisted (and the data rates are terrible).
It seems like there’s probably a better way to do this…
All data and benchmarks would disagree with you. If you find something showing that SMB isn’t slower than the others mentioned, I’d love to see it.
Real world usage tells me all I need to know.
