SSD needed for Cloudron?
- 
I would love to have a dedicated power horse as a server for my cloudron. But the option to simple restore my cloud server from just an image backup in case of desaster is so much more important. So I decided to stay with my smaller cloud server and use a storagebox for more storage.

I've bought a storage VPS from Servarica, https://clients.servarica.com/store/black-friday-2023, a Polar Bear deal. Then I mount it as an external Volume. Several apps on my Cloudron then use that for all the data. My affiliate link (but of course you don't need to use it): https://clients.servarica.com/aff.php?aff=855

@jdaviescoates said in SSD needed for Cloudron?: TW, don't do what I did and assume 2 x 512GB SSD in RAID 1 means you'll get 2 x 512GB of actual storage Thanks, I know how RAID1 works  @jdaviescoates said in SSD needed for Cloudron?: But for extra storage you could always add at Storage Box too if need be Storage Box from Hetzner? @lukas said in SSD needed for Cloudron?: Storage Box from Hetzner? Yes, exactly. They make it quite easy to buy one and mount it to your server.

As I can remember I could not use it for Immich to store all my photos / videos.

I just had a look and the storage box tab on my dedicated server and it says: To get space for depositing your server's backups please order a Storage Box which will be linked to this server.

I will use Storage Box for backups then
