I have an old WHS back up system which frankly is well out of date to state the obvious. So ditched it for the set up below.
I am looking for a backup and media solution. I shoot a lot of photos so having these backed up securely and regularly is key. I run an Android box for the TV media, using emby server from the main PC.
Main PC Win 7 has the following
Internal drives
C : - SSD OS
E:- 3TB - Media shares to Andriod box and a few back ups of other folder from G and J (554GB Free)
F: 1TB Main Photo drive for photos Type A + Music (50GB Free)
G: 3TB Main photo drive for photos Type B (600GB Free)
External USB
K: 3TB Back up of some folder on G: (Full)
WHS backs up some of these too but is falling over too much and these set up feels messy and the back ups to the E drive are manual.
So being I want to backup and feed music/video to the TV what do you think are my best options?
Ditch the E drive for starts into a NAS? Update the 1TB to a 3TB? 2 or 4 bay NAS? Or not NAS?
Any tips or solutions would be most welcome.
Thanks
