Hey #homelab friends, I've been thinking about what would happen if the kids desktops had a hardware failure, and how we might best do backups. Said backups need to happen automatically, need to survive being interrupted, and require no input from the user. I'm considering just putting their entire home directories into a syncthing share with rolling versioning, mirroring to the enterprise storage Linux server we've got in the garage. That should be enough to handle both hardware failures, but also "oops, I deleted this file" accidents. Other suggestions are welcome. Kids are on Windows right now (will move to Linux Mint eventually).
