       Anyone have good backup strategies for local servers (think, Mac mini or other SFF) with a single disk?  My "meh, that'll work" solution would be an SSD attached via USB.I figured combining that with borg backup (https://www.borgbackup.org/) would be sufficient, but I'd love any suggestions or to hear how others are doing this.

       @funnylookinhat do I really need to explain the 3-2-1 strategy? ✌️😂

       @RyuKurisu@funnylookinhatI second the 3-2-1 and further point out that nearly all back strategies are glorified rsync on a cron. I would start there and then assess things.Rsync has the ability to only send updated files, delete removed files, and piping into tar.gz you get a lot. Even if you did need a snapshot system, you still need the data off the failed device.
