Book Description
In today's digital world we produce vast amounts of data; photos, videos, music, documents, and more. Our risk of catastrophic data loss has never been greater as many of us rely on third parties or "The Cloud" for data storage and security. The question we must ask ourselves is simply what happens when, not if, but when stormy weather strikes, the cloud opens up, and our data is lost forever? Over the years, we've all heard reports of large corporations providing cloud storage backup losing customers' critical data. The bottom line is, the cloud isn't as secure as many believe it to be. In the Terms Of Service, which we must all agree to, most of these companies are provided legal protection against data loss. Many of us are not aware of or do not practice the 3-2-1 time-honored backup strategy which states, you must have 3 copies of your data at all times. A primary (working copy), secondary (archival copy), and an off-site (cold-storage copy) for disaster recovery. This book covers the archival data backup portion of the 3-2-1 rule by providing a step-by-step easy, and affordable method of creating a safe and secure local data backup solution. This includes an easy-to-follow installation and configuration of an Unraid Server. I've deliberately used older components unearth from my garage to show that shiny new "expensive" parts are not required to build a reliable, safe, and secure backup solution. By providing both practical knowledge and understanding this book will continue to be an asset for many years to come. Don't wait! Now is the time to backup and safeguard your digital life! Grab a cup of tea or maybe some coffee and let's get started?
