Yev from Backblaze here -> we'd be curious to hear how! A lot of folks are looking for quick migration assistants for our B2 service, that's pretty fast!

> Yep we're going to get at least a few actual technical blog posts online in the coming month. We haven't got around to writing them yet tho so feel free to surface any requests :) Here's a request, how did you migrate al

Yev here -> One of the reasons we started opening up about our Backblaze Pods and Hard Drive stats was so others would do so. We approve this message :D

Yev here -> Let me just say you're welcome and thanks for joining the party :D

by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> Yup! It's pretty entertaining! Granted we only store 180TB b/c we use primarily 4TB drives and it's inexpensive for us to do so. If we had 10TB drives in there we'd be pushing up to 450TB pe

by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> Yea :D Though if we used 10TB drives we could get about 450TB in one pod, it would just be hilariously expensive for us to do so. Granted that's not 1PB per pod, but we'd imagine our costs are lower.
517.
by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> Not ALL the hard drives, but yes. In fact we explicit told anyone that was out buying hard drives for us to leave some on the shelves for the average consumers going in to the stores, hopefully they listened.

That gets posted every time we publish our stats. It was an...entertaining read ;-)

by atYevP 11y ago
Well those folks should have Backblaze ;-)

Hi! Yev from Backblaze here -> Yes, we only report the stats of what we have in our environment. As much as we'd love to have a test of SSDs in a pod (augmented for SSDs of course) they're just not feasible from a cost per GB p

Yev from Backblaze -> when you have 200 of 'em you lose count :P
522.
by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> Thanks! We tried to act pretty quickly since it was causing deletions of data. As a backup company that's a thing we try to help people avoid :P

Yev the non-founder here -> Hah, that's great to hear! The founding members are still a silly bunch.

by atYevP 11y ago
You'd be right!

Well, they did release this official blog post -> http://blogs.adobe.com/adobecare/2016/02/12/creative-cloud-d...

by atYevP 11y ago
We've gotten one or two mentions of this before, but our designer really likes it. Creative types...what are you gonna do?
527.
by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> That would be cool, though there's no real "requiring body" to require post-mortems. The company has to want them. We do them ALL the time internally at Backblaze, they help us piece together wha

Yev from Backblaze here -> To their credit Adobe did put out this blog post/update -> http://blogs.adobe.com/adobecare/2016/02/12/creative-cloud-d... .

Yev from Backblaze -> no idea really, we initially thought that it was "on update", but then when we dug further it appeared that it would fire any time a sign-in occurred on the broken version. Not sure what the exact code was

Hello gang! Yev from Backblaze here to answer any questions. Sorry, just woke up. Who posted this? Australians? :D
531.
by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> Today was a weird day.
532.
by atYevP 11y ago
You're welcome! Our devs are not pleased that they had to spend most of their day tracking this down, but they are tickled by the response :D
533.
by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> it was...uh...baffling for us too.
534.
by atYevP 11y ago
Yev from Backblaze here -> sorry! It took us all day to figure out what the hell was going on. Kept getting folks writing in, when nothing had changed on our end. Our Mac dev probably left a dent in his wall from trying to figure it out.

by atYevP 11y ago
I don't have any, but I'm a bit removed from that team. May want to ping them again to see if there's any status updates.
536.
by atYevP 11y ago
We have chat available :D
537.
by atYevP 11y ago
Ah! Fair point, I'll fwd to our web folks!
538.
by atYevP 11y ago
Not at the moment, but we're considering many build outs including our own, or partnerships!
539.
by atYevP 11y ago
Ah, I think the difference there is + meaning adding instead of + meaning higher. Fair point though!

Interesting! How'd they calculate that? Taking the S3 price and dividing by B2 price then multiplying by 100 = 440%. Are they accounting for something else in their calculation?
