    Oh, perfect! Was planning to get this as my offsite backup for my TrueNAS setup.

      This deal is only for PCs or Macs.

          Not sure if this helps:

          Correct. Rather than using my "main" PC for backups, I have a dedicated crappy old laptop sitting in a cupboard with external drives attached to it and backblaze licence on. I use that as my dedicated backup PC (NAS -> Backup PC -> Backblaze), and I just dump data from my primary PC to the NAS. Nothing critical/important/irreplaceable is on my primary PC, so I don't really care if it gets destroyed or lost

      B2 Cloud Storage is the only one that works with TrueNAS/Synology/etc I believe, and it's like $6/TB per month.

        You can run this on UnRaid and possibly other NAS.

        Given Backblaze (non B2 offering) is unmetered, beyond a TB or so this is the cheapest option I’ve found to run on a NAS. UnRaid can also run Crashplan as a docker container, as an alternative, but uploads are slower I’ve found.

        Might draw some attention if you try and backup dozens of TBs, but I’ve archived off around 11TB for some time.

        You can of course always just have a Windows based NAS using something like Stablebits DrivePool also and install Backblaze as normal. I did this for years before swapping the OS to UnRaid.

    tital says 25% but message says 20%?

    • itsfree on 20/08/2024 - 16:52

      Thanks fixed!

    Isn’t it cheaper to use something like onedrive for cloud backup?

    • MrFunSocks on 20/08/2024 - 17:16

      Depends how much you want to back up. OneDrive lets you buy an extra 1TB for $12/month. This is "unlimited" (though I'm sure in the fine print it's absolutely not actually unlimited).

      • itsfree on 20/08/2024 - 17:30

        Well there is one guy that has over 430TB up there, so seams unlimited to me. Remember: This is a cloud backup not cloud storage, so you need to have that amount of storage with that same data you want on backblaze on your computer.

          Yeah I know the difference. Multiple TB HDDs are the norm these days, and Backblaze will back those up much cheaper than onedrive will.

          Good to know about the "unlimited" likely actually being unlimited!

    If your a uni student / know a uni student, get them to make a shared drive on GDrive and use duplicati to backup to it encrypted with your keys. Works very nicely, and totally free for a few terabytes (depends on the account quota)

    • ldd-mn on 20/08/2024 - 20:45

      Provided they get supplied with Google Drive storage, which isn't always the case.
