I finally got the dreaded over storage warning from google today. What is everyone moving to these days? People were moving to dropbox advance but i heard its not really unlimited anymore. I have 30TB of data that can't be reproduced (family videos and photos). Any recommendations? I prefer not to spend $100+ a month on backups but if i have to do it then i'll do it.
What you also might consider is re-encoding your stuff to use less space. Photos can be stored as lower quality jpgs and home movies can be reencoded as hevc. The latter can even be done automatically using something like tdarr.
1if you backup locally so not over a network share you could use Backblazes Personal Backup ( https://hub.docker.com/r/tessypowder/backblaze-personal-wine ) it's like 8$ for unlimited backup
but they have some kind of tracking for blocking cifs/smb shares but you can circumvent that using dolany my current setup as my data is mainly just a Hetzner 20tb storage box I have a second windows VPS that mounts that CIFS storage using dokany und Just run backblaze Personal backup there was a real hassle to set up an the backup takes for ever but yeah it works
1I use AWS S3 Glacier Deep Archive. 30 TB would cost you about $27 per month.
0How much is it to retrieve the data if needed?
