I’m looking for a diskspace of possibly 1TB online

Edit: my idea is to use it like as an external harddisk for everyday stuff. Encrypt the disk, put my filesystem on it, mount it as external drive kinda. Never worry about backups or lost data etc, as the provider would take care of it

    Check out Hetzner Storage Box. I’ve got 20TB for my Jellyfin library and it’s $50/mo.

    Edit: use rclone to mount it as a network drive on your desktop.

    Edit 2: Just checked and it’s $40/month

      I’m kind of curious why you don’t just buy a HDD or two. At $600 a year you’d break even really quickly.

        It’s a good question. If I had something like gigabit internet with high upload speeds I probably would (and eventually will). Right now though, I use Jellyfin from wherever I am, and I share it with a few friends and family too.
