I have a remote server I want to use to backup files from my laptop. There will be no other machines pushing files to this folder. Because I don’t own the remote server I am encrypting the files at rest on the server by declaring it as an untrusted Remote Device from my Laptop.
The Folder Type on the remote device is set to Receive Encrypted, the local Folder Type on my laptop is set to Send Only.
My question is, if my laptop is burned up in an overly dramatic explosion/fire, will I be able to pull files back down from the Remote Server if I have the encryption password from a new device? The Folder Type of Receive Only felt confusing to me but as I understand it, it just means it will not sync any files that are added locally.
Thanks in advance!
