Re: Home Assistant!
if you are using a raspberry pi try and use an ssd or similar - sd cards are given a bit of a hammering in home assistant and fail - I use a NUC but you can get ssd for pi now.
also I have google auto backup installed on ours so we don't lose anything if anything fails - hardware or software updates
