I use Backblaze B2. About 512GB for about $3-4 a month. Its my secondary backup so hopefully will never have to use it 🤣
I use restic with B2. Works well
So true, it's kinda my only offsite backup because my other copy is only the mirrored drives. Backup is so expensive 😭
Yeah it's gotten even worse with all this AI hardware shortage crap
Same. Local RAID 1 with rotating external drives where one is always offsite, then B2 as a last ditch "just in case" for my most important data. I forget how much data I have in B2 but it's about $2/month.
