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!

      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 😬
