How do you backup your data?

I've been considering paying for a European provider, mounting their service with rclone, and thus being transparent to most anything I host.

How do y'all backup your data?

How much are you backing up? Admittedly backblaze looks cheap but at $6 Tb leaves me with $84 pcm or just over $1000 per year.

I'm seriously considering a rpi3 with a couple of external disk in an outbuilding instead of cloud

Oh, I think we're talking different orders of magnitude here. I'm in the <1TB range, probably around 100GB. At that size, the cost is negligible.

Isn't backblaze is like $6 per TB 🤔🤔🤔

So $216 a year?

$6 x 14Tb = $84 month x 12 months = $1008 per year, or did I miss read the prices?

Sorry, I thought you or somebody said they store 3TB. Probably I'm mistaken, sorry 🥲
