Automatic Backup, Finally

Tim started playing with FreeNAS and installed a terabyte FreeNAS server at my place. Maybe someday I’ll be able to get all my photos, including thousands that I haven’t been able to access for years, there! But we haven’t gotten that far yet.

Tim and I both started using CrashPlan as a free backup service, so I had my local PC data backed up when we decided to work on my PC again—in a way that might require reformatting.

Last night I copied about 50 GB from my PC to the FreeNAS server, and there was one delayed write failure. Uh oh—don’t know what caused that.
