> AWS S3 Glacier Deep Archive is $1 a month.

Only if you’re backing up nothing and using non-encrypted files and making sure you don’t delete anything (rsync with delete turned off). I tested this not even three months ago. I hit $30 with only 3 tb of data with deep archive while wasabi AND backblaze cost less than that. No need to even trust a single provider. If you’re never changing your files AND you don’t care about encrypting them then yes GDA is fine and pretty cheap. Otherwise wasabi and backblaze get more done for less cost.

I meant a $1 a month per TB for AWS S3 Glacier Deep Archive That was my bad.

I am definitely a fan of B2.

I understood what you meant about GDA. It just doesn’t come out to that unless you put stuff in and never touch it, which is a valid use case! Don’t get me wrong, I planned on doing the same but with restic it would cost so so much more than wasabi and backblaze that it was a massive waste of money and really revealed amazon’s strategy, which is lock your data away and charge you to access it.

I wasn’t talking about B2 though, I was talking about Backblaze personal, which you can run on a NAS with a docker container.
