I can get a 1TB storage server from Time4vps for about $60 (they charge in euros). That gives me the ability to store stuff with sftp, rsync, or more full featured backup solutions like borgbackup.
- shiftpgdn 6y agoHave you tried using that full 1TB? Many small time hosts oversubscribe and will look for a reason to boot you if you go beyond a reasonable usage %.
- pnutjam 6y agoYes, I have. I ran it full for a couple months, on accident. I had a symlinked directory getting backup up twice... I never heard a word from them, but I eventually noticed and fixed it. I generally run around 600GB.
- singhkays 6y agoSure but do you get to use office apps as well? I assume majority of the cost in the Office deal is the cost of the full Office suite
- anuila 6y agoSounds like a bad deal, comparatively. Microsoft skips the low-level interfaces but gives you redundancy and usable UIs and services (on top of an API)
- pnutjam 6y agoI can run other services on top of backups, for example, I run a calibre server.
