first of all: Happy New Year to you all! May it be filled with much health, a truckload of wonderful moments and finally deep understanding for the human race!

I have a server that needs to be backed up once a week. Preferably via rsync. The problem is: we are talking about 10 TB of data at the moment, which could swell to 18 TB over the coming year. Access is only once a week, and a higher volume of data traffic only occurs during the first backup and in the event of a backup restore, which hopefully won't happen. But we all know that the devil is a squirrel.

I am no longer up to date because I have hardly devoted myself to the "IT hobby" for a good 2 years.

What's a smart bunny doing these days when he has to solve my "problem" above? I know that this place is teeming with smart bunnies who not only smell good but are also very helpful. So I'm really looking forward to your hints and tips.

Thank you very much in advance and all the best,
Amitz
