So I know to backup my things, and my plan is to have only an SSD in my rig for applications and windows, then use the NAS for media and games. But I've no idea how to back the NAS up, I saw Linus video over NAS and he said to have an off site one for backup but I don't know how that would work or how to set it up.

Or, you can just get a USB3 or E-Sata or Icydock and back up the NAS to a large size HDD.

The dlink 320l has a USB port on the back, do you mean for me to put an external backup drive through that every time I backup?

Well, I would do pc backups every day or so, and then do a manual backup to an external every couple/few days.

Is this what you mean?

PC backups every day automatically on the external HDD through the DAC and a manual external HDD update throughthe dac every few days?
