<h2>Please don't lose all my pictures again!</h2>
<p>When it comes to data storage and potential data loss I am a paranoid person. It is not just due to my job but also due to a personal experience I encountered over 10 years ago: A single drive failure and loss of all my data (pictures, music, ....).</p>
<p>A little about my personal infrastructure: I am running my own (mostly FreeBSD based) root servers (across several countries: Two in Germany, one in Canada, one in Bulgaria) which store all my online data (E-Mail and my Git repositories). I am syncing incremental (and encrypted) ZFS snapshots between these servers forth and back so either data could be recovered from the other server.</p>

<h2>Walking one round less</h2>
<p>I am thinking of buying a second 2TB USB drive and to set it up the same way as the first one. So I could alternate the backups. One drive would be at the secret location, and the other drive would be at home. And these drives would swap location after each cycle. This would give some security about the failure of that drive and I would have to go to the secret location only once (swapping the drives) instead of twice (picking that drive up in order to update the data + bringing it back to the secret location).</p>
