Hi,
I want to build backup server for my small office
So, every employee's PC will be backed up to the server real time (just like drop box or GDrive, every time you make a change, it will be synced to the server and you can restore the older untouched version), also only the user can access the file
Is this a good approach? Since we frequently lose data because of virus and malware, hardware malfunction etc (We lose 6 years of customer's data just because 3 separated pc, storing the data, broken down in the same time)
So far, there are 18 PCs need to be backed up with approximately 50-100 GB of data each PC, total is 1.5 TB
I already owned :
I also want to RAID the HDDs, so 2 main HDD dan 2 RAID HDD
And maybe some offsite backup, maybe we can just use external hdd for additional backup
So anyone have the idea how to make this work?
Will FreeNas be sufficient and fulfill my requirements?
Or maybe using something like Owncloud?
Thanks
