Why don't you use Backblaze or CrashPlan?
For backing up something personal, why don't you just use actual Backblaze?
I have BackBlaze running continuously. You can do similar with Tarsnap.
I recommend looking into restic and/or rclone
Backblaze might be what you're looking for.Otherwise, you could use an external hard drive and rsync
Backblaze is ideal for this use case.
There are a lot of options, all doing those items, including BorgBackup and Restic.
After using the discounted small business version till this month I finally moved my backup to: restic [0] + B2.It was really just a 30m job and I have a setup that backups 4 times a day and prunes etc twice a week. You might want to checkout their forum if you need any help. I had tried Borg and duplicity [1] too but found restic to be perfect for my need.I also have Tarsnap[2] for the double backup of my most important data.[0] http
The only answer for backups is Tarsnap.
Backblaze [0] not doing it for you? Or are you running Linux?[0] https://www.backblaze.com/
