I have two questions: * I suppose that means you create the LUKS drive on, e.g., /dev/sdc rather than, for example, /dev/sdc<n>? (I suppose that should be easy to do.) * But, I'm wondering, how much bit rot would it take to make the entire backup unusable, and what kind of precautions do you take (or could be taken) to avoid that?
