I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

Rsnapshot on a second server, saving 7 daily backups, 4 weekly backups, and 6 mk they backups

Same setup!

Additionally, about once a month I will grab a copy of the latest daily backup to an USB drive and store it away from the server

I'm lucky enough that my backup server is at my parent's place I'm their basement, so it's off-site by already
