Help me backup

Hello there,

My computer has enough free storage to backup all the files from the computers at home. I have set all the computers up so that I can access the backup drives from my home network. I have an issue though: what software should I use? I want something that just keeps a copy of the files uncompressed and updates them on a regular basis. All I could find compresses the data and I want to have access of the all the time.

Thanks in advance!

dosent Linus have one of his server doing this? look if you can find what he is doing for backup at the office because i think he has something similar to this

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

running bittorent sync is an option i would believe. then having a script to copy files from the sync folder to the archive. But there may be better solutions
