Cheap S3-compatible storage?

bkjbkj Member

I am looking for some S3 storage, I do know Wasabi exists for "cheap", but honestly such good redundancy is not a requirement, I would honestly go with someone who just resells their Hetzner storage boxes. I need like a small amount, 100GB say, but not sure who sells it like that

  • You can try out idrive which should cost around 40 cents per month but I don't know how good they are.

    100gb, if your not pulling much off it, B2 from Backblaze.

  • Storj gives you 150GB / month free.

    Storj first 150gb is free, then $0.004/gb/month. it's also already integrated with filezilla

    does storj require a credit card for the free plan? I'm asking because If someone does that and goes over 150GB traffic or storage then they'll get billed without knowing about it right away.

    Hetzner? No.

    Yeah I thought so, that's why I was wondering about the OP why would he said storage box if he requires S3 compatible.

    Oh, I didn't make it clear. I meant as in the SX lineup (the Dedicated servers), not their actual storage box product. :sweat_smile:
    So if someone could sell a part of it, it would be cheap perhaps

    Try contabo S3.

    Minio is awesome - i dont pay for any S3 storage I just use minio - the main value proposition for paid s3 providers is the redundancy of the data.

    If u just want s3 storage as cheap as possible - minio is awesome

    Is there a script to deploy minio or a reference guide? I have always wanted to do that

  • tjntjn Member

    @xetsys the easiest way is to use docker

    Below is the docker-compose.yml I use:

    version: "3"
    services:
    
      minio:
        image: minio/minio
        ports:
          - "9000:9000"
          - "9001:9001"
    
        volumes:
          - ./data/minio_root:/minio_root:z
    
        command: "minio server --address 0.0.0.0:9000 --console-address 0.0.0.0:9001 /minio_root"
        env_file: ./env.minio
        restart: always
    

    and my env.minio file:

    MINIO_ROOT_USER=root
    MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=MySuperSecretPassword
