After upgrading my server, I have a bunch of spare drives. Both the on-site and off-site server are now completely full (Node 804) and adding more is a huge pain in the ass.

At same time, I also got the dreaded Google mail regarding storage usage. So even though I have a 1:1 replica off-site, I still want to make additional backups. I was thinking of treating old drives as tapes meaning the backup software keeps a metadata database online, showing which drive needs to be connected to restore a specific file / validate backups.

I know LTO backup tools work like this but is there anytrhing like this for drives? Pref. a web UI, docker and open-source. Thanks.

Sure, we have 22TB in that format already

Ik zou mij toch even verdiepen in waar die man voor staat.. behoorlijk conservatief christen namelijk. Dat is geen vooruitgang. Heel goed in politiek bedrijven, heel slecht voor progressief Nederland.
