Comment on What is your preferred method for backing up several TB of data?

Are we talking personal offsite backup, or a commercial cloud service?
For cloud backups I like BackBlaze but I’ve never tried to use it as a general cloud storage drive.

This would be self-hosted and local, one of the locations in a 3-2-1 strategy. BackBlaze would work for an offsite but I already have that portion covered.

So you want a local self hosted backup, but also not a full copy? So like backup only recently changed files?

I want like one local device to have a full copy, but the devices writing new data into that one do not need a full copy.

I think you just described using a NAS as primary storage.

In technical terms you mean doing an incremental or differential back up to a local network storage location, correct?
