I use Arq 7 on macOS to backup to various network, cloud and physical drives. This is able to mount network volumes both as backup sources and destinations, in addition to connected physical drives (internal or external). Source: 11 months ago
Wasabi.com is an Amazon S3-alike that I use with the arqbackup.com client for remotely backing up my machines. Wasabi offers a nice desktop client for what looks like Dropbox-like capability. Haven't dug into that yet either. Source: over 1 year ago
The only way to resolve is to log in to Arq account at arqbackup.com , deactivate the licence, then go back into the Arq app and rekey the (same) licence. The app starts to work immediately fine. Source: over 1 year ago
I use Storj (with Arq) and it works flawlessly. It's not my primary repository (still testing it) but it's one of a few I use to backup to. Speeds are fast, the dashboard is intuitive, and costs are pretty cheap. Nothing to complain about, but I'm only backing up ~500G right now. Source: over 1 year ago
I use Storj and host a node (I get it, might not be what you're after). If it helps, my node is in a datacenter, not in my home/SOHO. I'm using Arq to send data up to Storj on my / other's machines. Always around to help, if needed. Source: almost 2 years ago

In your case, I don't think you can set a retention policy with HB. I use Arq to manage my retention for me. I think what it's saying is, don't use a policy with HB and with the bucket. Use HB first (which you cannot) OR use the bucket's direct policy. Source: about 2 years ago
I use a cloud storage provider to back up via Arq https://arqbackup.com But I don't expect to restore more than a few gigabytes at a time from that. It would take me a week or more to download a terabyte of data. I have very little power over internet connection speed, and there are very few alternatives here. I believe there are two different vendors providing connectivity to our town, and you can pick between... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
If your friend can venture up from $7 a month, it will open a lot of doors. You can use Arq and roll your own backup to Backblaze B2 or Wasabi (examples). Just a thought... Good luck. Source: about 2 years ago

Not pushing any particular product but you might want to look into Arq (what I use) or Duplicacy (used to use). There are others out there but I use / have used both of these extensively. Both work with B2 (and other cloud storage services) and handle external drives, NAS, etc., with ease. Source: over 2 years ago
Then it comes down to choosing a software that will back up to your preferred offsite backup choice. I've been testing arqbackup.com which has a lot of options for both local and offsite, but I'm not an expert in backup software; I just know this particular one will backup to Google :).

Combine true unlimited storage with any of the other backup software(s), and enjoy. I've been testing Arq (arqbackup.com), but since I mostly back up my important files locally, I don't have a software recommendation :/. Source: over 2 years ago
I use Arq and my Synology NAS' built in backup service (Hyperbackup) to send data to B2. Source: almost 3 years ago
