How to modify (partially delete, update or split) existing 1.5 TB backup
Hi!
I made a mistake when copied all my files to the cloud as whole (it took a month). I do not have the copy at my premises. Now I need to delete some files, and update some other files. How to achieve it without downloading 1.5 TB of data and uploading it again? I have a very slow upstream channel (~15 Mbit/s).
May I create another backup using the cloud as a source?

When thinking about 3-2-1 backup planning and offsite backup, consider that the cloud is not the only option although everyone is pushing cloud backup these days.
I have a safe deposit box at the local bank. I use two offsite backup drives and periodically swap them to the offsite location at the bank.
Offsite backups were common before the cloud.

The Cloud is useful but for anything ULTRA critical I would also have physical off site copy. If it for a how system, use a USB 3 HDD to which you copy the important backups and store it in you desk draw at work. I did this before I retired (back then it may have been USB 2 HDD).
