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've gone up one size. 5TB for 10,90€.

Weekly cronjob that mounts the storage box, an EncFS volume and rsyncs my files.

    That's a nice setup. I actually let restic do my backups. Is there an advantage of using EncFS/rsync? Like not having to use SSH?

    No, well I do the first mount over sshfs, then wrap EncFS because I don't trust hetzner with my unencrypted data. rsync just makes sure I only copy whatever files changed since last run to keep traffic at a minimum.
