Hello,
I am trying to plan out a FreeNAS setup for backing up a Mac and Windows computer for a business that runs out of my home (Location A). The problem that we face is a slow WAN upload speed (aprox 10Mbps) Thanks Comcast. The idea is to setup a small FreeNAS box as a "taxi" server to take nightly backups of the two computers at Location A and offload them to Location B, hosted at a local Datacenter. This isn't a replication, because we are looking for the data at Location A to be deleted after the data was successfully transferred. Keeping the data only at the Datacenter (Location B).
This design provides us with a nightly backup and disaster recovery. As of right now the business relies on an external HDD and a Mac which is very scary!!
Appreciate any input or thoughts for how we can make this happen. Thanks!
