How I Finally Solved My Storage Issues (The Ultimate Backup Solution)
00:00:00.000 | I've gotten a couple emails recently about what storage backups I use.
00:00:03.840 | I don't think I have a perfect solution for the cloud.
00:00:06.440 | So for a while I use Dropbox.
00:00:08.480 | And then when I started recording videos for the podcast, we ran out of space.
00:00:11.580 | So I switched to Google drive because I got more space with our Google workspace
00:00:15.920 | account, but the recent purchase that I made that I am really, really happy with
00:00:20.040 | is the Synology 923 plus it's a network attached storage device.
00:00:26.980 | So it's called a disc station DS 923 plus, and imagine a little device that
00:00:32.280 | just has a bunch of hard drives in it that you can plug into your network at home.
00:00:35.480 | You can attach it to your computer as like a network storage drive.
00:00:38.680 | But the thing I love about it is that it syncs everything instantly with the cloud.
00:00:42.280 | So for example, if I'm finishing recording this episode and I take the
00:00:46.180 | audio and video files and I put them on that network drive, it's really fast
00:00:50.120 | because it's local and it's connected via ethernet, but then that device
00:00:54.760 | backs everything up on it in a few folders with the cloud.
