It’s not error prone if you do it right. Syncing files is easy. But for your situation you might only be able to have the local NAS, which is probably good enough. You can private-cloud most things using something like NextCloud or similar.
I know that terabytes of free storage don’t exist, that’s why private cloud was never an option for me. Your issue is that you pretend that your solutions are universal.
A local harddrive/NAS is not sufficient to prevent data loss.
local NAS syncs over WiFi.
House to house NAS can go slow, it will eventually get there.
If it takes literal days to complete the upload of a larger file or directory to the backup, that’s rather error-prone.

Private cloud is rather expensive when you have terabytes of data to back up.
At this point I expect no matter what I say, you will reject my suggestions.
You should use Google or Apple cloud and just accept your privacy loss.
Since when did Google or Apple give you terabytes of cloud storage for free?
Also, why the fuck are you on Lemmy if you don’t care about privacy loss?
Nothing will make you happy. You want terabytes of data for free on your own private cloud. That does not exist.
How many TB do you need? Hard drives are cheap. Just get two in a mirror so if one dies you can replace it without data loss.
If you want something, you gotta pay for it. You know this, stop being a twat

So what is your suggestion?
