Comment on Custom remote backup
nfreak@lemmy.ml 1 week agoThis scenario is why my offsite backup is primarily a backblaze b2 bucket, while also running a large media backup to an external HDD once a month which I keep in a storage unit. Janky but effective

I was thinking about backblaze but the cost would be too high I think, and I have so much spare hardware laying around I may as well use it.

Depends on how much you use it. Since I don’t use mine for media, mostly for configs and service data folders, I barely scratch 120GB and I’m little paying under a dollar a month for it right now.

Oh that makes sense, yeah that’s cheap. I have a VPS that has 1TB of storage available, so I can easily use that for configs, dbs, etc. That itself doesn’t have backup enabled, but it’s fine for my needs.
