Hey guys,

​

I am currently thinking a lot about backung up my Server with Storage and things like my Vaultwarden.

​

As I want something pretty reliable I thought about getting a tapeloader.

​

What would be the most cost efficient solution there?

    While not a direct answer to your question, you might want to consider M-Disc as a viable long term storage alternative. Much cheaper than tape and guaranteed to last at least 5 years (safe realistically for at least 10 years)

      Well the maximum size of an M-Disc Blu-ray is 100GB so I would have to write 10-30 of them… that would be pretty annoying 😅

        It would be initially, but then you only have to add one every 100GB. How annoying would it be then?

        For me, not very. My data grows by 100GB every few months.
