Intel NUC (BXNUC10I3FNK2) support

[kamzata]

Can I install it on Intel NUC (BXNUC10I3FNK2)? I'd like to use it as Remote Sync in order to keep a local copy of my main backup server. Is it possibile?

Hey,

yes, it is, you should be able to install PBS on your NUC the same way you would on any other pc/server. For setting up the remote sync take a look at [1].

Thanks. Since I haven't bought it yet, do you have any suggests about other similar hardware that I should buy better than that to do this job? I mean, is there any other better hardware suit to keep just a local copy?

 

[Hannes Laimer]

What you suggested seems fine, just be aware that verifications(if you plan to run them) are CPU heavy so they would take a while. Furthermore restores will be faster with a faster CPU.

I have around 20GB's backups for 1 day. How much space will I need to store 7 days, 4 weeks, 6 months, and 4 years of backups? Will an SSD of 250GB be enough using incremental backups?

 

[Hannes Laimer]

That depends on your VMs and how much of their data changes between backups, however after a few backups PBS should show an estimate in the dashboard of how long it'll take before your storage is full. But 250GB are very likely enough.

Thanks.

Furthermore, can I install PBS on this hardware?

How long do verifications take on it?
