Looking for a simple device that does the following:

  1. Turns on when plugged in
  2. Connects to my home NAS and syncs changes
  3. Repeats daily on schedule

Any simple, low-maintenance offsite solution like this that I can set up once and periodically check-in on? This will just hide in a bedroom at my parent’s house connected to their wifi.

Even a MyCloud-type consumer junk device would be fine, just need that offsite without too much headache.

Thanks!

    I used an old NUC with ubuntu to do this, except the backup was performed by my server rather than software on the NUC, makes it with easier that way, imo. Auto start in bios and Wireshark set to always connect.

    I do recommend a wired connected if possible. So if someone messes with the wifi it won’t matter.
