Well, not a noob, more like an idiot 😂 EDIT: Yes, on the same drive as my Home folder, etc. And yes, technically they’re snapshots, not backups.

    That’s a very good idea. Might wanna keep an additional yearly one too though, in case you don’t use the computer actively for a while and realize you have to go back more than a month at some point.

      Ya, I offsite backup the entire zpool once a year at least. I have quarterly and yearly snapshots too.

      But the weeklies have saved me on several occasions, the others haven’t been needed yet.
