Hey everyone, I’m trying to set up a system where my data is stored exactly the same on two drives, so if one fails, I always have a full backup ready to go.
Right now, I have files scattered across 10 different external hard drives. I want to consolidate everything into a single storage setup and make sure it’s duplicated automatically. Basically, I want two identical drives that stay in sync.
A lot of people recommend the cloud, but honestly, I don’t trust it to upload everything perfectly — I’ve had issues where things just seem to vanish or don’t upload properly.
What would be the best and cheapest way to consolidate and mirror my data locally? I’m not super technical but can follow guides if needed. Looking for something low-maintenance and reliable.
My thought was buying a internal storage bay, and two extremely large TB drives and do that RAID thing where it makes exact duplicates on both? Thoughts?
Thanks!
