i got my nas box going now looking into backup options.
i have done a little research and am now totally confused. ZFS replication, rsync, crashplan. so many options. that's all great but guess i'm stuck and looking for some community suggestions.
my ~8TB raidZ1 freeNAS is essentially my media server plus 2 users home drives. it is only about 35% full atm, but want a future proof backup solution.
crashplan seems cool but backup up over 3TB over the internet don't seem too smart.
ZFS replication would mean i need a second freenas box somewhere.
so rsync seems like the only viable option for me.
any suggestions on the least expensive way hardware wise to set it up?
