Google sells 2TB of space on Google drive for $10/month. I'm looking to move my data elsewhere.
Can anyone recommend a European based alternative with a roughly similar cost?
- pranaysy 2y agoHetzner!
- staindk 2y agoOneDrive space (through MS365 single or family licence) works out much cheaper in my country. I'm sure in the EU it is GDPR-compliant. YMMV but OneDrive has been improving a lot. Their web photos browsing is comparable to Google Photos these days.
- homarp 2y agolinux sync works?
- MrDrMcCoy 2y agoIt's supported by rclone.
- ThePowerOfFuet 2y ago> OneDrive > I'm sure in the EU it is GDPR-compliant. Sure ain't, especially not in Germany with the BDS.
- guerby 2y agohetzner storage box $4 per month for 1 TB and $13 for 5 TB.
- bloopernova 2y agoGood lord it even supports BorgBackup. Thank you very much!
- lukaslalinsky 2y agoBe aware that it's just a single server. It's not replicated across multiple hosts like in the case of google drive. So you definitely want a backup of that if it's your primary copy.
- bloopernova 2y agoGood point, thank you. It may actually be a good thing that it's not replicated. That forces me to really make sure I have a separate backup elsewhere.
- anotherhue 2y agoUS -> DE latency hurts though. I used them when I was in europe but migrated away after I came stateside. Not a problem for cold-storage/batch jobs of course.
- bloopernova 2y agoGood to know, thank you!
- echoangle 2y agoI’m assuming bloopernova is based in Europe, so latency should be fine. At least they asked for an European-based Hoster (although that could also theoretically be for privacy reasons).
- jillyboel 2y agoyou should still be able to saturate your bandwidth with poor latency
- anotherhue 2y agoNot unless the protocol you use accounts for that. Smb for instance is tragic.
