Years ago I came across filecoin/sia decentralized data storage and I started trying them but then I stopped due to lack of time. Some days ago I’ve heard in a podcast about a kind of NAS that does kinda the same thing: it spreads chunks of data across other devices owned by other users.
Is there a service that does this but with your own hardware or, even better, something open source where you can have X GB as far as you share the same amount of space plus something extra?
It would be great for backup.
I use Wasabi too, I was thinking about having another option with data spread across different devices, with extra devices for safety (like SIA). Thanks for your point of view and for the suggestions!
Multiple backups are good (really 2 is the minimum anyone should have). It’s just the added complexity and overhead and distributed systems doesn’t seem worth it to me, I have a local backup on a disk mirror in my NAS, and an online backup to B2 and that feels like good enough so far.
