My Cloud EX2 Backup to Amazon S3

Read Original

This article details the author's setup of a Western Digital My Cloud EX2 NAS for automated backups to Amazon S3. It covers the NAS's features, the flawed backup software that creates unnecessary file versions, and the resulting cost issues. The author provides a technical solution using S3 lifecycle policies and restrictive IAM permissions to achieve reliable, cost-effective offsite backup protection against hardware failure, user error, and malware.
