Hi all. So, I want to start being more serious about my data. Personal photso, videos, images, documents, books, websites, etc. Nothing out of the ordinary. I have maybe around 1TB of total personal data. Not much considering what I've seen around here. My plan is to make 3 copies and keep one off site and doing a sync once a month.

Let me know if this sounds reasonable:

  • 1 HDD that I'll keep at home.
  • 1 HDD that I'll keep offsite.
  • 1 SSD that I'll keep at home and as my main drive, since I want to use my laptop as a dumb terminal, with minimal to no data in it.

Also, is there way to sync these 3 at once? Is there any sort of... dongle? Connector.. thingy...? To plug the three drives and sync them? The SSD would be the one with the most current data and I want to sync the others.

Last, I was thinking that all these drives should be internal, since I´ve read they're better quality than USB ones. I guess I'd like the SSD to have an enclosure for daily use.

Anyway, is this possible? Stupid? Fine?

Thanks!
