It’s surprisingly easy to maintain. I’m not someone that enjoys tinkering with shit like this to be honest, but I didn’t want to put my entire photo collection and what-have-you on Dropbox. Setting up the software raid was difficult. I ran into a tar pit with that, but it turned out the Pi can’t power two drives at once, and a powered USB hub was all I needed. Otherwise, I’ve only sshed into the VPS a handful of times in the year that it’s been running. I haven’t had to to touch Syncthing on the Pi. I probably need to run apt upgrade somewhere, but it’s all working fine.
