  Why not something like NAS4Free or OpenMediaVault, then? You don’t have to chose between DIY and paid-for, there is a middle-ground

  their snapshots are marked as copy on write, so my assumption is that for every write, there is replication somewhere.

  I might be wrong here, but my understanding is that their snapshots are the kind we find in modern filesystems (ZFS/BTRFS/…) : that is a point-in-time kind of functionnality, where a file will be duplicated (and the original version then will only belong to the snapshot) only when it is written to. This is just the way snapshots are implemented here - and a rather common way of doing it efficiently - not a reliability feature.

  Nope, doesn’t seem so at all. I’ll stay with the web version of LibreOffice, myself (and OnlyOffice as a second choice if the first one were to went south)
