What off site backup solutions do you guys use? I'm finally getting my backups going after, in extremely dumb fashion, not having any backups outside of some zfs snapshots.

Thanks in advance.

IDrive Is the cheapest and it's what I use. They allow Linux backups and it's 1/3 the price of backblaze buckets. They also give the same amount of backup storage in cloud storage. Encryption is done locally before uploading. I think I got 5TB for $70? That's all I need for critical data. All the rest of my 100 TB of data is Linux ISOs.

I use Duplicacy which backs up to Backblaze B2. I looked at Backblaze Personal Unlimited Backup ($7/mo) and from my understanding, the backups made with it are tied to the licensed computer. With B2 ($0.005/GB) it's just storage that can be accessed from anywhere (similar to AWS S3).

This is what I use too. I also use it in conjunction TrueNAS Scale/Core as well.
