- blindm 6y ago> I think having a backup solution is the better choice here Any particular provider you would recommend? I've looked into backblaze but it seems a bit pricey. Also: I am aware that cloud based backup solutions have very little failure rate in terms of drives since they're probably using RAID

- tenacious_tuna 6y agoI use Backblaze's B2 (think S3) style storage for backup, and I'm paying about ~$4.50 USD for ~1TB of storage per month. I don't use a ton of bandwidth though, so if you have a lot of churn in the files you're backing up you could see higher costs, but looking over the numbers Backblaze as the cheapest solution by far to others I looked at.
