Hi !
I am looking at creating a backup solution for my iMac and MBA. I need your advise to understand how I can do the following :
1. Use a Synology kind of solution with 4GB disks in each slot,
2. Use Disk 1 to keep all photo's and iTunes files and free up space on my iMac and MBA.... central repository of the media to store/access
3. Use disk 2 to be a replica of the disk 1
4. Use Disk 3 to be a Time Machine backup of Disk 1 and iMac
5. Use Disk 4 to be a CCC backup of Disk 1 and iMac
6. Use Partition Disk 5 for Time Machine and CCC of MBA
7. Use Disk 6 for Clone of Disk 3
8. Use Disk 7 for Clone of Disk 4
8. Use Disk 8 for Clone of Disk 5
So there is a backup and a backup of a backup. I have considered the cloud services like carbonate, blackblaze etc it could be my third backup just incase onsite backups are lost due to floor/fire/earthquakes/breakins etc
I am not sure how I can achieve what I am looking for, I am a non techie.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
