I've been using Kopia to backup my Windows work machine, Linux personal computer, and my wife's Macbook.

Right now, It is just backing up to my NAS, but I would like to have it backup to a cloud solution.

I figured I would get some S3 storage somewhere and point Kopia at that to make the backup. I do not need a lot of space. I think 500gb would be enough. I do not want costs to be too high.

Do I have the right plan, or is there a better option?

Thanks in advance.

So, I would need 3 different s3 buckets? One for each system?

If that’s the case, I might go the raspberry pi in a relatives house route.

Ah, no, Kopia uses a shared bucket.
