    I've been hopping between idrive e2 plans to save money for my cloud backups (which I've never had to restore from). But this time, even with their discounts, it's just going to be too expensive to sustain.

    I read that a Hetzner Storage Box might be a good option. It's relatively cheap ~$13 USD / 5tb a month (I'm in Canada, so currency conversion will make that higher).

    They are located in Germany, and support Hyperbackup via Rsync.

    I've never used their service, so I'm looking for feedback.

    Edit: Thank you so much guys. Before my idrive e2 subscription ends, I'll be setting up a Storage Box!

      I've got the 20TB box for my Jellyfin library. Works great.

        What does the price per hour mean?

          From what I understand, they charge "by the hour", so if you use less than a month, you get charged for the number of hours instead.

          It's not an egress or added charge... from what I understand 😬

            Does rsync have some option for encrypted file copying? So that storage providers can't see file content?

              Not sure, but they also support Borg, which definitely does.

                No, but you can encrypt before sending the data, or use something like restic.

                  Synology's Hyper backup can be encrypted, so yes for my use case.

                      @Showroom7561 you can pipe the files thru encryption ( and rename them) then send the files @RealBot
