So I have a pretty large setup at home, its all racked and all good there, however one thing I am missing is a proper off-site backup solution for critical data.
Now I got into self-hosting/homelabbing, among other reasons, as a way to cut cords from subscription services so I would rather avoid commercial backup solutions or even things like a cloud storage bucket.
I have permission from my parents to plug in a small server in exchange for their access to my media, I am thinking a minipc of some kind (likely N100), and then just a USB enclosure of some kind.
My minimum is 4 bays, and I want to avoid "NAS" solutions like Synology etc, just need a dumb enclosure that will expose the individual drives (planning ZFS) and perform well hooked to a minipc running proxmox backup server and a VPN client. No rack there so prefer the consumer targeted options that can sit on a small shelf.
thanks in advance!
