Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

ZFS is not a backup, but explicitly choosing to sacrifice the redundancy you have seems like the wrong move. By taking them out of mirroring you are guaranteed to only have what is in your backup in the case of failure, with no chance of recovery. IMO the correct answer is either to buy larger drives for backups or have less data (sacrilege).
How I have solved it for now is to keep using the current system but as a large part of the data is already a backup of devices around the house, those will only get backed up to blackblaze and not to the 1TB drive. All other files and server configs can then be stored in on that drive.
