I've been seeing this red exclamation mark in my Backblaze preferences view on my Mac. When I click it, it only takes me to my account view on backblaze.com. Obviously, it's intended to indicate that something isn't right, but I get no information. I recently deleted my existing backup and am starting fresh with my personal machine and two external drives. I'm running 8.5.0.660 (20230127194041) on Ventura 13.1.1 (a). Source: 12 months ago
What seems to be happening here is that the OP's ISP is blocking backblazeb2.com (where the API servers and all the files are), but allowing backblaze.com (where the login page is). Source: 12 months ago
For more than that or for more fractioned billing, I'd suggest using Backblaze (neat price comparison https://www.vmwareblog.org/looking-affordable-cloud-storage-aws-vs-azure-vs-backblaze-b2/). They charge for data retrievals like 2 cents per GB. Source: over 1 year ago
I was going to mention Backblaze or Wasabi first. Yet I can see that this is the question about both data organization and storage. Source: over 1 year ago
For redundancy, why don't you look at one more copy of your data or what you believe to be important in cloud? Wasabi or Backblaze look like perfect candidates to me. You could sync data to cloud and backup NAS with rclone. Yes, it looks like a deviation of 3-2-1 backup rule. Source: over 1 year ago
80 TB for 1K is near to impossible. You can try it with cloud like Backblaze or Wasabi . Yet, in the long run you will end up paying more than 1K. I'd suggest you just look for a DIY NAS. Check these builds:. Source: over 1 year ago
We were about to use tapes as a part of 3-2-1 backup rule (https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/) to back up off-site. Yet, we were lucky to be able to reuse our old server, added new disks there, and extended it to Backblaze with Free version of StarWind VTL (https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-virtual-tape-library) and Veeam backup and replication Community Edition...

Public cloud is promising and Wasabi and Backblaze are affordable ones. Getting yourself a HDD/NAS is also fine. Source: over 1 year ago
Talking of cloud, Backblaze seems to be one of the most affordable ones (price comparison https://www.vmwareblog.org/looking-affordable-cloud-storage-aws-vs-azure-vs-backblaze-b2/). Source: over 1 year ago
Maybe Backblaze. They do have an EU region (I missed that on signup, Note to self: remember to transfer...). For the us (not sure uf eu costs the same) it's 5$/TB/Month and you only pay what you use (I currently pay less than one cent per day (-70GB) and you can set limits on how much you want to spend per day.

I also logged in on backblaze.com and the file is explicitly not in the backup. If I click "Backup Now" (even thought it is set to "Continuously" it says "All files are backed up." Will this file every be backed up, will I get a message that it won't be backed up, and/or is there a way to get it to be backed up? Source: over 1 year ago
We built a "free" backup system out of an old server and leftovers of our infrastructure update (5 HDDs). Veeam Backup and Replication Community Edition (https://www.veeam.com/virtual-machine-backup-solution-free.html) + StarWind VTL Free (https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-virtual-tape-library) to extend backups to Backblaze (backblaze.com/) + Backblaze (actually, that's the only thing we've been paying...

We were facing the same challenge so we decided to go with StarWind VTL (https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-virtual-tape-library) + Veeam Community Edition (https://www.veeam.com/virtual-machine-backup-solution-free.html) + Backblaze (backblaze.com/). Source: over 1 year ago
I'd really consider Wasabi (https://wasabi.com/ neat price comparison https://wasabi.com/cloud-storage-pricing/) or Backblaze (backblaze.com/) if you plan moving beyond 1 TB of storage. You could even sync between cloud storage providers and local storage (check this out https://www.vmwareblog.org/single-cloud-enough-secure-backups-5-cool-cross-cloud-solutions-consider/).

Backblaze.com it's like 6 or 7 bucks a month for unlimited storage. Can't revert back to earlier versions though. Source: over 1 year ago
Speaking of backups, I was also thinking cloud backups. We use Backblaze (backblaze.com/) for our production as it is one of the cheapest offerings out there (https://www.vmwareblog.org/looking-affordable-cloud-storage-aws-vs-azure-vs-backblaze-b2/ ) together with Wasabi (https://wasabi.com/cloud-storage-pricing/https://wasabi.com/cloud-storage-pricing/).

Was just trying to look up something on the static sites at https://backblaze.com and it just wasn't loading or taking forever. Now I'm getting 500 Internal Server Error from nginx and sometimes Cloudflare's connection timed out error. Source: over 1 year ago
Another + for Backblaze B2 (backblaze.com/). Here's a neat price comparison (https://www.vmwareblog.org/looking-affordable-cloud-storage-aws-vs-azure-vs-backblaze-b2/). They do charge for data retrievals (not much but still). We use it as the off-site repository for ~10 TB of backups. Source: over 1 year ago
We are using Backblaze (backblaze.com/) as the off-site repository (~8 TB). No complaints. Source: over 1 year ago
Yes, building NAS at another location makes you closer to 3-2-1 backup rule (https://www.vmwareblog.org/3-2-1-backup-rule-data-will-always-survive/). We use Backblaze (backblaze.com/) for that very purpose. Source: over 1 year ago
If you go TB+ scale, consider something like Wasabi (https://wasabi.com/) or Backblaze (backblaze.com/). See price comparisons:. Source: over 1 year ago
