I am using WHS to hold my home's data and serve a few computers. I backup some data onto my ReadyNAS, but I have been thinking that I'd like to identify data I'd never want to lose (family photos and such) and backup to an online source.
So far I have only found KeepVault that actually integrates with WHS. Are there other options I should consider?
I considered just building a backup server, which I guess would be cheaper in the long run (especially compared to KeepVault), but with that option it can be difficult to add-on additional drives later (at least that what's it seemed from the research I did, but I am still newer to this stuff). And it still doesn't guard against something like a fire.
So I guess I'm asking a few general questions; 1) is it better to build a backup server, 2) if I do go online backup, is there anything other than KeepVault for WHS, and/or 3) is there some other option out there that is somewhere in between (like a Drobo)?
I should note that I have a ReadyNAS already, but it only holds two drives and using RAID1. I max out at 2TB of backed-up data. But then again, if I have the data on my WHS machine I can probably skip the redundancy on the ReadyNAS.
Sorry for the long-ish post. Any help would be appreciated.
