Remember I takled about [backups](/tech/howto_backup/)? Well, I have small funny story to share.
I have folder `Notes` with ... well, notes (copy #1).
- Inside it git repository (interesting thing, it was accidental, then I thought 'Why not?') which synchronizes with my git server (+1 copy)
- It have repository file hystory (Let's exclude it for simplicity)
- This folder syncs with my file cloud server (+1)
- Servers uses ceph storage, so there is x3 copies of same data (x3)
- Also, there are snapshots (Let's say x4)
- In addition to that, there is offsite backups (Let's say x2)
- File cloud syncs with another devices (Let's say x2)
So in total I have `1x2+(1+1)x3+(1+1)x4+(1+1)x2 = 20` copies of same `Notes` folder! (if we count snapshots as copies)
