For now my server doesn't have very important data most of it are your "Linux isos" I can just download again and I'm thinking of starting to move my file and photos to the server but in afraid. What if I get a ransomwarei don't realize and all my backups get encrypted too? Or if the backups are corrupted and my disks breaks? But also I'm afraid about cloud because I've seen some posts about people getting their google accounts closed without notice for breaking TOS (maybe they did something wrong maybe not).

It has it's dedicated place, and is my emergency backpack with everything to survive for a few days. It's simply connected via a sowed in keystone jack. It uses an embedded RPi powered by PoE (via said keystone jack) and auto syncs everything. It mostly only syncs PDF/A that I can use to view on a netbook, in case society collapses (instructions and manuals). Backpack has a small solar array and a 40mAh battery pack. Emergency equipment, knifes, axe, rope, fire kit and all of that. It's also the backpack I take on trips and hikes, to see its endurance. It's not meant as a backup your pictures kit, for that I have the four physical locations which are all in different parts of the country.
