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.

    I use a Hetzner Storage Box as extra storage to my Hetzner VPS. It almost feels like the storage is directly attached. We serve thousands of archives and binaries and have absolutely no problems. It’s fast and decently reliable (except some downtime I once experienced). The initial file access time might not be the best but the bandwidth is great.
