Hi Folks

I'm looking for some info on how to make a off site storage solution for all my files.

I have a few terabytes of data that I'd like to backup somewhere else (My Fathers house) using a Raspberry Pi and a couple of portable 2tb hard drives, plus I need something to be switched on 24/7 to access the files so electric running costs are to be considered.

My father has a working internet connection (not sure if static or dynamic ip) but rather do this than pay stupid rates for cloud backup I'd rather do this as I already have the hardware to do it.

Question is, is it possible and what software do I need to do this

PS: My dad has no desktop PC at his address, and only uses his internet connection for his ipad and laptop

Hope someone can helps

Cheers
 
Cheers Chri5, I'll have a go at the weekend, just a thought is there any other options such as FTP or would this get more complicated
