    As the stickied post said, we shouldn’t rely on cloud storage because X, Y, and Z but good god the whole point of these companies buying out missile silos, building in tons of redundancy, etc. was to prevent this shit. Google’s billions are no better than my $500 NAS, it would appear.

      It probably is still better. They have a billion users. Not saying this is not bad, they have one job and it should not happen. But Ive lost equipment at home for different reasons even though raid, surge protection etc etc. I doubt I statisticly could do better.

        Not with that attitude you won’t! You need multiple redundant RAID arrays with their own redundant RAID arrays to assert your dominance over data loss.
