A home networked server, what's not to like? It has been decades since I've set up something similar, and as I recently wrote [in the Pi-Hole](/post/2022/02/how-to-setup-pi-hole-on-synology-nas/) and [digital music](/post/2022/02/how-to-enjoy-your-own-digital-music/) articles, it was time.

**Addendum**, 08/03/2023---I completely forgot to mention an integral part of the backup chain: [Syncthing](https://syncthing.net/), another superb tool that's installed on both the NAS and my smartphone, syncing the Photos and Downloads folders which automatically get picked up by the Restic jobs.
