Hey guys, I've got a RPI lying around along with a 2TB hard drive. I
would like to use them to create TimeMachine backups of my MacBook on
partition and use another partition to backup my documents from my PC.
I currently have a PIHole running on the said RPI 3 Model B over a
Tailscale network with all devices above connected to it. I have SSH
setup as well. What would you guys recommend? Is it a good idea to
create TimeMachine backups this way or should I just create regular
incremental backups of my MacBook. For my PC data I used to have
Macrium Reflect but my plan expired and I wish to escape the
subscription model. Assume that I'm confident with configuring the
system, I just need some clarity on if this is the best way to do it.
For context, I have another 1.5 TB drive in my pc that has stored my
Macrium Reflect data and another 1 TB portable drive which is a hot
copy of my PC data and MacBook data encrypted with veracrypt.
