$5/yr + hosting, which is way more than $5 unless you have a terabyte going unused in a box somewhere

- gbalduzzi 3y agoGoogle storage for a personal account is 15gb if I'm not mistaked, why would you need 1tb?
- SamBam 3y agoI assume that "self-hosted" meant precisely that they own the box. A hard drive is under $10/terabyte.
- cornstalks 3y agoI was about to ask where you're seeing such cheap hard drives, but then I checked diskprices.com and saw that yes, there are indeed some drives for <$10/TB (current lowest price is $8.332/TB, and there are only 10 drives that are <$10/TB; I'm only looking at new drives).
- SamBam 3y agoI mean, I think my point is still valid for a $20/TB drive. It's a one-time cost, not monthly, and you're unlikely to exceed 1TB with Google Drive data.
- fareesh 3y agoAh I assumed it was self-hosted but in the cloud somewhere
- mulmen 3y agoSelf hosted means not in the cloud.
- sebmellen 3y agoYes I host on a very cheap Hetzner VPS (which I use for other self-hosted Docker images as well) so it’s always up. The storage location is not on the VPS itself, it’s S3 and B2 compatible, so you can use AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, whatever. I use Backblaze which is quite cheap and reliable: https://help.backblaze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037814594-B2-Pricing https://help.backblaze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037814594-B2....
