I'm interested to hear what do people use as their cloud backup and the cost of it. I currently use idrive e2 storage at 5$ per TB a month. Trying to see if there is any better deal anywhere and just curious on everyone's thoughts.

I use Backblaze B2. About 512GB for about $3-4 a month. Its my secondary backup so hopefully will never have to use it ๐Ÿคฃ

So true, it's kinda my only offsite backup because my other copy is only the mirrored drives. Backup is so expensive ๐Ÿ˜ญ
