Run RcloneView on Raspberry Pi — Build a Low-Power Cloud Backup Appliance
· 5 min read
A Raspberry Pi draws 5–15 watts. That's less than a lightbulb. Leave it running 24/7, and it becomes a silent, always-on cloud backup appliance that syncs your data while you sleep.
The Raspberry Pi is a surprisingly capable computer for cloud storage tasks. Pair it with an external USB drive and RcloneView, and you have a dedicated backup machine that syncs local files to cloud storage (or vice versa) around the clock — at a fraction of the power cost of a full PC or NAS.
