Full title: PBS broadcaster loses access to 50TB of data comprising 70 years of TV history after contracted cloud storage vendor goes defunct — public TV channel sues Iron Mountain data center, which hosts archival materials, to ensure preservation
And that folks, is why you follow the 3 2 1 rule
This is the 3–2–1 rule that PBS taught me as a kid:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=s2-LEBc2sO8&t=3s&pp=2AEDkAIB&ra=m
Followed by Square One
3- THREE CDRWs should be used to record the daily backups
2- TWO of them should be kept at home. Drive the discs home nightly, preferably in a station wagon because they have higher bandwidth
1- ONE CDRW is burning data in real time. Make sure mirroring is set up so the CDRW is mirroring your live hard drive
What do I do if all I have are PS1 memory cards?
Make a PS1 Beowulf cluster and turn it into a NAS.
If you run out of PS1s, consider furbies.
Instructions unclear. Made self-aware furby army.
I for one welcome our new Furbie Overlords.
The Furbarmy Apocalypse is upon us :(
