Just installed a further 2 x 6tb drives into my home server so now running with 4 x 6tb.
My current system is setup as a 2 drive pool that has a duplication factor of 2 so that 2 copies are stored one on each hard drive. So currently no physical backup, all files are duplicated as the system is set to "balance immediatelty".
The question I have is what is the difference between the following, or am I thinking it right that there is no difference.
Set the balance to be every day at say 01:00
Installing some backup software or sync software such as EaseUS EverySync to sync from the pool to a backup everyday at 01:00
I am just thinking that Stablebit is tried and true and works like a charm so why go hunting and buying other software if I can configure Stablebit to work in the same way.
Is it possible to balance on drive pool with another or do I need to get creative with file placement etc?
