I hope to build an all-in-one (https://forums.servethehome.com/ind...one-nas-is-easiest-to-install-learn-use.4681/) for the main file server, and I'd like a separate system to back it up. Hopefully the backup system won't be as expensive. I'm open to used equipment, but I'd also like to price out what the least expensive new hardware would cost so that I can consciously decide whether to make that trade-off.
Actually, I'm not completely convinced I need ECC for such a backup box. Perhaps verifying the files after backup would be adequate error detection? Non-ECC platforms are extremely cheap.
Ideas? Suggestions? Recommendations?
