Hope that no data loss 🙏

Thanks to Allah, the drive is still working, just slow in processing data with ATA errors. So OVH copied the data from old HDD to new one and now waiting their confirmation for replacement.
Always create a backup copy on another provider, ex: s3, OVH known for that type of incidents
good idea but cost per gig?
It depends on how important the data for you, and also who is the provider, ex: I’m using s3 from Contabo, 3$ per 250gb monthly, also serves men as cdn combined with cloudflare
it actually depends on my funding and right now I can say it's as bad but thank Allah in all cases. and oh that's cheap! I will look more into it. thanks!
hey, I found that OVH has object storage too and seems it's more cheaper than contabo so what do you think about it
I’ll give it a try ✌️thanks
you are welcome and yes it's only egress which if being honest I won't need egress a lot (at least hopefully)
wanna ask you, if you were from. what will you backup from these?
bin/ dev/ home/ lib32/ libx32/ media/ opt/ root/ sbin/ sys/ usr/
boot/ etc/ lib/ lib64/ lost+found/ mnt/ proc/ run/ srv/ tmp/ var/
Nothing but /home where i put all my files, everything else are system files, you may need to backup some configuration files from /etc/{nginx|apache2|mysql|..}, i don’t do that, because I’m installing all my stuff by ansible, all saved in a GitHub repository
Already did both /home and /etc (and /root just in case) 😅
Do you have matrix/simplex chat?
Traffic billed separately, humm 🤔
