What is your cloud backup solution?

I’m interested to hear what do people use as their cloud backup and the cost of it. I currently use idrive e2 storage at 5$ per TB a month. Trying to see if there is any better deal anywhere and just curious on everyone’s thoughts.

Restic. Nightly backups to local, then Cloudflare R2, then BorgBase. All free.

Wait what? Free? How much data are you backing up?

Currently a total of 1.37 GB, spread over multiple backups. That’s two host, running among other things home assistant, paperless and *arr stack (though media is not backed up).

Cloudflare has a free tier of 10 GB. I believe BorgBase is the same.

There’s people that have 200TB Nas’, and people talking about the 10€/month/5TB Hetzner tier. And then there’s op backing up 1GB across 5 cloud provider’s free tiers.

What you got in there? Your light novel library?

All my documents, music, databases, env vars + configuration from both hosts. I specifically don’t back up movies and tv shows because they’re restorable by downloading again.

I don’t have any photos in my stack anywhere. That might be why it’s so low.
