Hello!! Some recent technical problems on my family’s NAS gave me a big scare and finally pushed me to figure out a way to back it all up. I’m asking here specifically because I really don’t know where to even starts because of the fact I’ve got just under 50 terabytes worth of data stored in a 7-disk RAID-5 and would prefer to keep it cheap. What are your suggestions?

    Is it data you would trust in the hands of random strangers on the internet? If so, I can easily store 50TB for you, as long as it’s temporary.

    Oh, and I have various storage solutions in various jurisdictions, so if you have any preferences as to places you do NOT want to store it, that’s something you need to hilight.

      … this is odly nice of you. Sorry, but are you really willing to trust a random internet stranger to store up to 50TB of data on your machines? The data could be literally anything and might put you into trouble 😵‍💫

      No offense, just curiosity

        what’s the difference to storing it on a company’s platform?

        sign a thing that says there’s nothing illegal in it. done.

            Yeah I’m not OP (and I’m not offering this service to the public) but anything I’m ever hosting for anyone else should be zero-knowledge encrypted. I don’t want to be able to know what’s in other people’s data. THAT makes me uncomfortable. As long as it’s encrypted, and I don’t have the key, it’s just random bits as far as I’m concerned.

            I don’t care what you use your random bits for. None of my business.
