I have looked through some of the other options like idrive, dropbox, etc. I don't want to use Amazon or Google because I don't trust them (well, I don't trust anyone with my data, but I really don't want them having it). To store the ~2TB of data I have now with B2, it would be around $130 a year or so, which isn't that bad, but I'd always be feeling like I'd need to watch my uploads so I didn't really get out of control on the cost. I like BB, and have had a positive experience with them for a few years now, but I don't know about the idea of 'pay to play' the way B2 is structured. I have to switch to B2 in order to do that. Currently, I've been using Backblaze personal backup, which is great, but now that I am moving my data from my workstation to a couple of NASs as I change my storage strategy and upgrade the homelab, I can't use the Backblaze personal backup option anymore (they don't backup from a NAS). I have TrueNAS on-site backing up to my synology NAS on-site. The purpose of the cloud storage for me is the '1' in the '3-2-1' strategy. I've been reading a lot about different cloud storage services.
