Can I Back Up My HEXOS Server to My Windows PC in Another House? (Beginner Investigation)

[Knallblech_Server]

Hi there!

 

I’m planning to build a home server using HEXOS, and I had a simple but important question:

 

Is it possible to back up a HEXOS server to a Windows PC located in a different house?

 

Both systems would have 3x 8TB hard drives and would be connected to the internet—but not the same local network. I’m still a beginner and haven’t bought the parts yet. I just want to understand whether this is even possible before investing time and money.

yes this should be possible.
i;m just not sure how you would go about it.
its always a bit annoying dealing with machines on different networks.
i imagine you would have to start with tailscale or a reverse proxy and then go from there.

So the simplest way that I do this is Via Tailscale, I have the mapped drive from Hexos Via the Ip given by Tailscale running in Cobian Backup to do complete backups "only transferring new files" from my home PC's data drive. I also have the same thing running with URbackup on hexos that does a complete backup of the whole C drive into a img incase of my laptop becoming lost or stolen.
