I backup around 2TB with Restic, also tried locally with Borg. The size is nearly the same. Sadly, I can’t even test with Tarsnap! (absurd pricing for 2TB).

- justsomehnguy 3y ago> absurd pricing for 2TB Well, it can't be that ba.. $0.25 x 2000 = $500 Yikes. And this is without BW costs. At $500/M you can just rent a dedicated physical server with a lot of HDDs and still have money left for your favourite pumpkin latte. For comparison rsync.net says it's $0.015 per GB/Mo, for 2TBs that's $30/m and no BW costs.
- frankjr 3y agoNot in any way affiliated but I'm a happy user of Scaleway's Object Storage [0] together with S3QL [1]. It's not the fastest but they give you 75GB of storage for free so that's a fair trade [2].

- ilyt 3y agoI'm renting $15/mo 2TB atom machine from OVH/kimsufi as second target for backups. Now that I think about it... some kind of micro-distributed backup server (throw on few of your machines, auto-replicate between) would be a neat project...
- justsomehnguy 3y agoIt's not even that neat. Just slap rsync/syncthing to the backup dir.
- ilyt 3y agoI do use syncthing on NAS + remote cheapo server for my day to day stuff, and bareos for rest. It's just PITA to add another instance.
