It'll cost you more storing it in cloud than just buying more drives. If you're already in a spot where that's a problem, this is not a solution for you.
Yes, but I use the cloud for other purposes too and have enough storage for a backup, also even if I were to buy another drive, I would like to store one copy offsite without having to buy two drives
I'd calculate your total cost then, and figure out ingress and egress costs depending on the provider. Cloudflare with R2 is the only "cloud" storage service I'm aware of that doesn't charge for either right now. They may in the future so check out your costs.
Hetzner doesn't either for their storage boxes. They support Borgbackup, restic, rclone, SFTP, FTPS, WebDAV and SMB.
Most storage VPSes will include a decent amount of traffic per month.
If you want I can hit you up with a couple TB S3 compatible block storage against a small compensation covering electricity. I've got about 30TB available of my 64TB that are just doing nothing right now, it's a shame really. I'm running a TrueNAS homelab in a RaidZ2 with battery backup and proper Firewall and IDS/IPS protection (but I'm not a professional). If that's fine DM me.
