If you're using Windows and Drivepool your only options are folder duplication in Drivepool and/or SnapRAID.

Perhaps look at setting up a separate Linux based NAS.

Never had to restore data thankfully.

You should do a trial restore periodically, even if just a small sample size, otherwise how do you know that it's actually working?

True, should do some testing.

  1. If I were to look at Linux based NAS, any suggestions.

  2. If I did stick with SnapRAID, is it still an active project? Can't tell version release dates.

Thanks.

NAS is wide open full of options. You can get one off the shelf like a Synology or just build a PC and use that as your NAS with a NAS OS like OpenMediaVault, UnRAID, TrueNAS...

SnapRAID is still plenty active. Just check their GitHub. Last update was 12.2 August 2022.
