I finally got the dreaded over storage warning from google today. What is everyone moving to these days? People were moving to dropbox advance but i heard its not really unlimited anymore. I have 30TB of data that can’t be reproduced (family videos and photos). Any recommendations? I prefer not to spend $100+ a month on backups but if i have to do it then i’ll do it.
I currently have a NAS at home and another one at my parent’s house a few towns over. I don’t know anyone out of state that’s willing to host a NAS for me. I prefer to have my data in the cloud since me and my parents don’t live that far from me and the data is irreplaceable.
Ahh that makes sense. In that case I think AWS Glacier might be your cheapest option. (At least until you need to restore).
Edit. That said a safety deposit box might still be an option if you vacation or visit a far away place somewhat regularly. Just update it every year or so. Keep changes waiting to be updated in a cloud backup. This way your not backing up and paying for 30 TB in the cloud but maybe 1-3TB of recent data that hasn’t been backup to the safety deposit box. That cloud backup size would get reset once you successfully update the safety deposit backups.
I am not sure what the best option is software wise for actually accomplishing this world be. But something to think about.
