    I have a RPi running nextcloud and a second RPi rsyncing all the files weekly from it, nothing off-site, but at least it’s two separate drives on different machines. Anything that I can improve here(cheaply)?

      You might consider what you would do if your source has an issue that syncs the to your off-site copy. If it isn’t a lot of data, you might want to keep another copy or two in either location that is created at a less frequent schedule but would give you a fall back.

      As an example, if your files got ransomware encrypted and then sync’d to the off-site location, how would you recover your data?
