I've been hopping between idrive e2 plans to save money for my cloud backups (which I've never had to restore from). But this time, even with their discounts, it's just going to be too expensive to sustain.

I read that a Hetzner Storage Box might be a good option. It's relatively cheap ~$13 USD / 5tb a month (I'm in Canada, so currency conversion will make that higher).

They are located in Germany, and support Hyperbackup via Rsync.

I've never used their service, so I'm looking for feedback.

Edit: Thank you so much guys. Before my idrive e2 subscription ends, I'll be setting up a Storage Box!

I am using them on a small storage box (around 2tb) and I am quite happy with it. One of the things that I particularly liked is the documentation. If you have a use case for rsync, Borg backup or others, it's probably covered in their documentation (plus, never had an outage or issue with my data). I didn't use their support at this point, but ibheard good things about it as well.
