I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

Backblaze on a B2 account. 0.005$ per gb. You pay for the storage you use. You pay for when you need to download your backup.

On my truenas server, it’s easy as pie to setup and easy as 🥧 to restore a backup when needed.

I’ll add to this that restic works amazingly with Backblaze. Plus a dozen or so other backup options.
