Hi, anyone any thoughts on the best way to backup a Mybook World Live device i.e backup the backup. With the MBW there was an external usb socket which enabled you to backup the server to usb using a cron script and your preferred linux tool i.e rsync. So every night my MBW backed itself up to a locally attached 1Tb disk drive.
My MBW disk just died and I ordered the MBL 2Tb, as it seemed to be bigger, faster, stronger etc, but it also seems to have dropped the usb socket, which is a shame as this was very useful and worked well.
I guess I could either :
-
get a nas dongle and use that, but I think they are mostly FAT32 only
-
get a second MBL and backup to that across the network
-
backup to the cloud. that would be the smart thing to do, as 2 local backups are not resistent to flood , fire or local disaster, but I perceive that this is still expensive for > 1Tb of data
Anyone solved this conundrum ?
