Add Hetzner Storage for Media

[lukas]

Are there any providers which offers NFS storage and are not too expensive?

[lukas]

Hi all,

I found an hosting service with NFS support, which is mounted successfully on my Cloudron server:

I added it into Immich as Data directory:

Means, all data within this Data directory will be part of my backups, I can exclude it but every "manual" backup takes space from my backup location. I hope to have in very near future some options to set different backup locations for my Apps

did you read this: https://docs.cloudron.io/volumes/#nfs

no, what is this article supposed to tell me?

[imc67]

Insecure traffic
Please note that NFS traffic is unencrypted and can be tampered. For this reason, you must use NFS mounts only on secure private networks.

@imc67 yes that's fine for me

@lukas what is the nfs provider you are using? I might also be interested in checking out that option.

For the backup, is there a specific reason why you don't want backups to be made for the content within immich?

I plan to install Immich von our Smartphones to have "backup" of all our photos. Currently I have only 1 TB Hetzner Storage for my backups, so I would like to backup Immich data on separate backup storage.

This is a great find and very reasonably priced!

[lukas]

@girish yes definitely!

Maybe off topic: I have cloudron and immich as the only app installed on https://contabo.com/en/storage-vps/. The 400GB is what made me go for it.
I can't vouch yet for reliability or performance, but seems as expected for $5
Backups sent to Backblaze for cheap price too.

yes a very good idea, but in my case I need around 600GB so with NFS storage I'm cheaper.

Maybe I setup Cloudron on my Intel NUC at Home to run Immich...
