![]() ![]() I'm currently "between online backup strategies" right now, although I'm leaning towards CrashPlan. I've been experimenting with cloud-based backup trying nearly everything out there from KeepVault to CrashPlan. The rule of thumb is that backups ALWAYS succeed. Test your backups by practicing a restore.Backup files (and disk images) to two external drives.You can also use the System Image tool built into Windows, but I prefer the additional options from Acronis. ![]() Use an imaging tool like Acronis True Image to create images of the machines you REALLY care about.Here's the summary if you feel the rest of this post is TL DR and a ramble, which is likely because it is. After Windows Home Server recently removed Drive Extender technology (their version of RAID support in case a disk fails) I switched over to a Synology 1511+ and did a podcast on it.

In 2007 I posted about my Family's Backup Strategy and encouraged you to develop your own, or confirm the one you already have.
