Tonight I set up automatic file synchronization between my home network attached storage and desktop PCs, I downloaded "Allways Sync" its an Ad funded "freeware app" and it rocks!
I now have an RPO of 6 hours and an RTO of 30 minutes....
Not bad for $340 of hardware and protecting 1TB of pictures video and music!
In reality I could go for a more aggressive RPO but I don't see why I need to. The RTO is dictated by the 1GB Ethernet speed, the RPO by the disruption that the sync software causes. Beinging realistic I can live with an RTO of a week and an RPO of similar duration, afterall I am realy trying to prevent loss of our families archive of pictures and video.
