10$ per year, 325GB "storage" rclone backend support

JabJab · August 9

Hi,

I don't care if this is FTP/SFTP/SSH/S3/VPS whatever rclone likes and it likes a lot of things.
This could be even single zone S3.
Looking for like 325GB of storage and like 350GB of BW so when I one decide to migrate everything out I won't get blocked.

Or something monthly with very flat fee and not like 800GB minimum and we bill for transfer. I don't want to do a doctorate in AWS pricing.

I already have and I am looking for something else than:
HostBrr
Servarica
Hosthatch
Lowhosting
Hosteroid
GoogleDrive

Those things are good for backup storage, but I want moar endpoints. Backup is only backup if it's in a lot of places and lot of providers.

Perhaps shared hosting will be more realistic for this budget.
Also, if it's on GDrive, what's the urgency? I don't think Google gonna deadpool.

Google has a history of disabling accounts and it can be extremely difficult to get them to restore. It's wise to have backups even with Google.

Yeah for niche BS products, not a core one like GDrive/Gmail which many people pay for.

Niche like G+, Picasa, and Google Code?

Many of the shutdown products were not short-lived experiments but established, 15+ year-old paid services.

Not in the same ballpark even. Those were community/social products, basically bring
zero income and added value. Drive/Mail/Search are core products that bring revenue.
I will believe they will shutdown Drive only if they shutdown search.

Do you think Google search is usable? It's killed long time ago by Sundar Pichai.

Yes, something like that would work too, but most of those start at 1TB and I don't I need 1TB

Deadpool? Yeah no.
Turn off something? Yes.
Crash? Yes.
Burn down the datacenter? Yes.
Reallocate resources to AI? Yes.
Get a drone strike in Middle East? Yes.
Get a funny software bug and data non-recoverable? Yes.
Get a funny human going crazy and data non-recoverable? Yes.
Guess if those are just hypnotical or those already happened...

Most shared hosting have TOS to make you don't use it as storage, big files, huge files, a lot of traffic. Most, not every, but if you see anything worky please do - this is why there is FTP mentioned in body.
