@p44 well, that s*cks.

I just noticed BB's pricing has changed to have a bare minimum $6/TB/mo charge. I wonder if they're deliberately causing the failed backups to kick me off the grandfathered plan
@humptydumpty After a week, more or less, I can confirm: with iDrive e2 no any failed backup...

@p44 Perfect
Thanks for the follow-up. -

@humptydumpty hello, after about 20 days from last post, and about one month about use, I've a negative feedback to share about iDrive e2.
I experienced an unplanned outage on EU (Frankfurt) data center.
Service was down, yet their status page showed "All Operational."
No prior notice or updates during the outage. I had to contact support to even confirm the issue.
Support acknowledged the problem but provided no clear timeline or explanation.
As a new customer, this kind of lack of transparency and communication makes me question their reliability.
Of course, I'm looking for alternatives...

@p44 It seems to be a trend in the hosting world. I ran into the same issue with Contabo, but unlike iDrive, they kept denying the outage
Thanks for sharing! -

Wow... also with Contabo?

@p44 They're okay to use for non-critical stuff where SPEED and reliability are not a concern. I used their US servers. Maybe the EU ones are better. I had the NVME plan and it reported HDD speeds. I switched to Hetzner dedicated vCPU (cheapest plan) and it's rock solid (US EAST servers).

@humptydumpty Thank's, so you have Hetzner dedicated vCPU with eg. Minio?

@p44 No, the Hetzner VPS is hosting my "front-facing" apps. The idea
iswas to use Minio to back up apps like Nextcloud and Navidrome (too large and expensive to upload to 3rd party). Currently, all 3 servers are being backed up to Backblaze with the larger apps having auto-backups disabled! I know, I know, not the wisest move but will have to do until we get multi-backup destinations. Ideally, I'd like to backup NC to an external NVME drive, just to be able to "restore" in case of a botched update. I'm not worried about data loss as the files are synced across multiple devices any way.
