That leads me to think that moving Documents, Downloads, Video and Music to the NAS is the right way to go, and do the backup from there. I have a list of apps and pesky numeric licenses (curse you, Nuance!) for reinstalling software, so it is really just files to worry about. Given digital licenses and how easy it is to do a complete fresh reinstall from MCT, I don't think so anymore. I used to think that a bare metal backup of a Windows PC was a good idea, and a local backup on the PC was a good idea too. Here is some of my thinking, with 4 windows PCs and three Chromebooks.

I travel a lot and am sometimes away for 2 months at a time, so i don't always have direct access to my nas with my laptop, in that case maybe on device cloud backup is better? Should i be wanting to backup from the nas to a cloud service (back blaze b2), or should i use a on device cloud backup such as idrive, backblaze, etc Now here comes a part im really not sure about, Or if my network gets ransomware, apparently ransomware now will look for nas servers on the network and encrypt them.

Use a sync software (syncback, bvckup2), and sync files and folders to my nas (custom truenas build), this is to protect me from Accidental file deletion. I have 4 different criteria for what my backup is to protect my data from Here is my current plan, please if you have feed back or suggestions let me know. I am trying to set up a backup strategy for me and my family, I will be backing up 7 win10 pcs, and a few phones I find ssh more convenient authentication type, so we need to create private and public key on Windows and copy public key to linux machine.I hope i am posting in the right place and you can help me.
