  Or you can take a two 2tb offers from @DediRock / @hostbrr / @NovaCloudHosting for ~$30/y and run garage/seaweed and you will have two copy of your data in 2 different DC for ~ $60/y. The hoster storage already protected by raid 5/6 and you will have your own second copy protection.

  woot thx for the mention @x1arch

  Me too, but when they rise prices, I switched to my own storage. 99$/y for 2tb plan it's too much, you can every year register a new account for 50% discount and move your data from old to new one. But it still two times more expensive than you can take here. I started idrive in 2023 with 8€ per 2tb with prolongation price €24, but then, after few months it change to €46, now it 99/y. 😵‍💫

  If you have 2-3 x machines idling - self host Garage S3 - I got yggdrasil working (self healing encrypted ipv6 mesh) - I saw it mentioned on the Garage site - to secure the S3 cluster replication

  What about overhead yggdrasil and direct connection? Did you test it? Maybe compared with zerotier/tailscale? Do you use manual peering? Interesting thing, looking something to replace my ts setup.

  So far I've only compared netbird ipv4 / yggdrasil - ygg seems to be 1ms faster on pings. I don't connect to any public endpoints so I just have a private network with manually configured peers.

  ygg seems quite nice (less moving parts to go wrong - a single daemon without any dependent services - compared to netbird) -the ygg daemon uses around 30mb of RAM (0.5% of 6gb) - & practically no cpu when idle (0.7% of 4 cores every 4-5 seconds in htop)

  I do like the netbird DNS integration & run Knot DNS primary / secondaries in rootless podman over it. Zone transfers can be secured with mutual TLS. The knotc client gives you a terminal to update DNS records. As long as your primary is not down for more than 96 hours your remote secondaries will work (so run dual primaries) . QUIC also supported.

  With netbird now you can close your SSH port too

  I tested it:
  Tailscale (headscale): 150mb/s
  Zerotier (ztnet): 125mb/s
  Wireguard: 250mb/s
  Nebula: 32mb/s
  Yggdrasil: 500mb/s
  Internet connection: 1gb/s
  Cross-node connection: 10gb/s

  All test's makes in direct connection mode, without relays.

  Mega was just shilling their S3 storage over at r/homelab.

  Looks like it's the cheapest solution, unless you want to roll your own. Their 3 TB plan is $10.

  Never used them. Not affiliated. Note colorful history and current ownership.
