The first pothole in your project is the "local Win server". You can buy a
QNAP NAS with 2bays (mirror) and 2 4Tb disk for something like 300 US$.
QNAP software and hardware are very reliable. In the base sw package there
is an utility to backup your NAS data to a cloud repository. If you don't
like QNAP there is plenty of other brands.

Is it feasible/reasonable to nightly backup savf from IBM I to local Win
server of qsys.lib libraries and selected ifs directories.

At V7R1, and total savfs should be .5 Tb ? There is room on disk for the
save files.

Don't know how to calc how the "real world" speed of such a transfer
(shared
drive or ftp ) across 1Gb Ethernet.

. poor man's DR idea . any not obvious potholes to avoid?
