Hi, so I'm finally getting there in terms of a proper 3-2-1 backup solution.

Setup:

  • DS124 - active dataset
  • External USB harddisk - for weekly backups, always connected
  • External USB harddisk dock - for quarterly/half-year/yearly backups
    • Quarterly - onsite air-gap backup
    • half-year/yearly - offsite air-gap backup

I still need to store my critical data in a cloud somewhere, but I haven't gotten to that yet.

That means that I'll have 2 harddisk in a rotation using the hd dock.

I've seen many storage enclosures, from just a plastic case to crush resistant to EMP resistant.

What do you store air-gap backups in?
