Cloud Backup (lemmy.world)

I finally got the dreaded over storage warning from google today. What is everyone moving to these days? People were moving to dropbox advance but i heard its not really unlimited anymore. I have 30TB of data that can't be reproduced (family videos and photos). Any recommendations? I prefer not to spend $100+ a month on backups but if i have to do it then i'll do it.

Also I believe that backblaze can do NAS backups now relatively affordably.

Last I looked it was .005 GB/Month. That adds up quickly when you have 30TB.

That’s a very fair point, they also offer the setup where you can rent a hard drive and ship the initial “upload” (with 30TB that can still be an issue).

Edit: just realized you’re not talking about the cost of data transfer but monthly storage cost. I’ll look again but last I checked the server/NAS bulk unlimited tier was a set cost up to x TB

When I looked last time I didn't see anything about different pricing on NAS backup. But I also didn't look very hard.

Nope. so just looked and you were bang on. So for OP, $150+ including some bulk download if needed.

Who are we?

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.
