Hi All,
I'm considering building a NAS maybe start with 4-bays.
Data is around 10-20TB at the moment, including personal and also work related data. Not sure how fast it will grow.
When doing the research, I learned quite a bit about backups.
So my idea now is to build a NAS with easy access and another copy of cold backup.
When looking for hard drives, I found for NAS, it's just easy just to go with Seagate Irowolf or WD red plus, which are deisgned to run 7*24.
But for the cold backup, which should not be accessed very often, there are some suggestions to go with the more premium ones but also some also suggest just use such WD blue or Seagate barracuda.
So what consideration should be taken to choose the offline/cold backups?
Thanks a lot.
How large is your organisation, and why are you not using cloud like everyone else?
