Spent the day performing backups (hadn’t done it in a while 😱) and wrote a full backup definition internal document that defines my backup process, scope, security, frequency, backup locations, capacity and backup and restoration procedures. Very happy with the doc and the updated (now fully documented) plan and scheduled backup frequency (once per month, which I’ll put into my calendar as it’s done by hand for now, with tools). So far backing up ~410GB out of a possible ~12.8TB worth of data in two locations – I deliberately don’t backup everything as much of the data can be re-created (music, videos, tv shows, etc). #Backups #Data

Offline backups currently cost me around ~$2.00 AUD per month.
