HexOS backup/replication to Unraid


Question

Posted

OK, so I've got myself a couple of HexOS licenses. Additionally, I have an Unraid lifetime license.

Here's the plan:

  • Build three NAS...es (what's the plural of NAS? 🤔)
    1. Primary: HexOS
      • Main NAS
    2. Secondary: HexOS
      • Offsite "buddy" backup
    3. Tertiary: Unraid
      • Backup/replicate my HexOS NAS to a NAS running Unraid.
      • I did consider a third HexOS license, but running a NAS with a different OS gives me additional redundancy to protect against any issues caused by the OS (be that HexOS or Unraid).

Here are my questions:

  • Is this even a good idea?
  • Has anyone done (or is planning to do) something similar to this?

Since this would be the third backup/copy of my data, just file backups (and things like app config information backups) would probably suffice, at least for now.
It would be cool if there is a way to have app redundancy/failover, since both platforms do run apps using Docker. That is beyond my expectations, though.
