    Scaleway Glacier Storage. Similar to aws, but cheaper, 0.002$/GB/Mont

    For redundancy i use both AWS and Scaleway Glacier

    It sucks that Scaleway only supports Cards payment, not even PayPal.

    I'll keep them for a modest price calculated according to my apartment rent and how much space they occupy.

    Price per hour to store one of these for me?

    $13.42/month, for 1~1000 units.
    This equals 1% of my apartment rent ($1032/month) plus 30% income tax recovery.
    Retrieval would cost $1 (bus ticket to post office) plus postage.

  • honestly if you can have a machine at home it will be infinity more cheaper then any cloud storage.

    Yeah but what if earthquake or fire happens?
    And this solution needs a huge upfront cost.
    Earthquake happens very frequently in my area here.

    you could also just bury it in the ground inside a dry bag. the farther in the ground you bury it the more everything resistant it would become ;)

  • What about sync.com he has unlimited space for $36/month

    I'm not gonna trust "unlimited". And the price is way over my budget :(

    @AXYZE said: Even AWS/Azure will be cheaper

    Even if the OP download twice a year, AWS bandwidth cost can be high. Bandwidth cost is 0.09 USD/GB/month. If OP download 10 TB twice that itself will be huge? Am i missing something?

    You're missing that:

    • S3 itself is way cheaper (especially Glacier tier),
    • transfer from AWS S3 to AWS Cloudfront is completly free,
    • Cloudfront has 1TB/mo transfer Always free tier.

    It can end up as cheapest solution out there, depending on the usage.

    Your example "If OP download 10 TB twice that itself will be huge" isn't what OP said, but okay, lets sort it out:

    Cloudflare R2 10TB = $1800/year (no egress fee).

    Backblaze B2 10TB = $600/year ($100 for each 10TB downloaded)

    Wasabi Hot Storage = $840/year (no egress fee until you go above what you host - 10TB free egress tier every month in this example)

    Hetzner Storage Box = $275.28/year (20TB free egress each month)

    You can get Hetzner+Backblaze instead Cloudflare R2 and you will get two georeplicated backups! Even if one fks something up you have second one. That's a lot better right? And you will spend just half as much for that!

    Like I said R2 is VERY bad deal for OP use case, that's why no one recommended it and its not worth considering.

    Hetzner storage box promoting themselve as unlimited traffic. Did I miss anything?

    It may say seedbox, but seedboxes are essentially just linux boxes ;)

    I hear an RAID5 option may be coming soon as well ;)

    for added security, pipe through gpg in batch mode to encrypt / decrypt

    ... and if your house gets on fire, flooded or if an earthquake destroys the memory cards - will there be any insurance?

    forgot to mention, 12TB is 19.99€ per month, min upload speed is 100Mbps and you get all the usual tools of a linux box. Backup task related tools etc. which might be benefit for all and are FOSS you may request via a ticket as well.

    3years discount is 15%, so that drops it to 16.99€/Mo, or 1.42€/TB/Month.
    Also it grows constantly automatically.

    Current bonus storage is actually outpacing the discount on drives by a big margin, if i recall right average user receives like 28% bonus annually right now -- and funny enough, it is now semi-guaranteed (global max not hit -- yes, we give out petabytes of free storage)

    Honestly interested in what factors you take into account in your 'calculation'. Just a hint: if I see $300 for 10T (3 years) with 30% discount you can't really buy redundant disks for it. Maybe you're lucky and they survive 5 years, but those 2 years you have to take into account the rest of the hardware and power costs. Also, you want archive storage away from your primary location, so you need to ask a friend or so for it.

    Seems like a good deal, but since you are on RAID-0, I will still need a backup solution. Thanks anyway ☺️

    Average survival rate for a drive for 5years is approximately about 92.3% and for 10years 84%

    You can buy your own insurance.
    Otherwise it's YOLO.

    We use RAIDZ2 and give rsync, sftp, SSH access. Includes 7 daily zfs snapshots, we can customize this number if you want more snapshots:

    https://clients.microtronix-tech.com/link.php?id=79

    We do smaller pools and drIves for more resiliency of each zpool, less ongoing drive issues.

    Price is a bit higher but no egress charges, unlimited in/out on 10g nodes, and you can pretty much use any tool to backup to it.

  • @jfreak53 said: We use RAIDZ2 and give rsync, sftp, SSH access.

    Can I do zfs send to this ?

    Ya know, I'd have to check. I think it only works from pool to pool, so local devs. But I could be wrong, it might be able to encapsulate SSH.
