Yes, but I use the cloud for other purposes too and have enough storage for a backup, also even if I were to buy another drive, I would like to store one copy offsite without having to buy two drives

Sorry, forgot to state this. I am running it as a server, currently only as a minecraft server and a few small static sites, but I‘ll be running more services if I need to. Maybe a streaming service like Jellyfin, or a cloud of some kind in the future

For me the fediverse and Librewolf on Linux
