What's your backup strategy?

I tried to use borgbackup but it was too slow on my Raspberry Pi. Restic is faster for weak CPUs.

Restic + rclone + Backblaze B2 is my stack. Encrypted, deduplicated, cheap. I have 800GB of photos from my photography site, total backup size 340GB thanks to dedup.

You host 800GB on a Raspberry Pi?

No, the Pi is just the backup runner. The site is on a Hetzner dedicated. Reading comprehension.

Has anyone used Storj for backups? Decentralized and half the price of S3.

Storj is interesting but I do not trust my data to strangers' disks. Call me old.

It is all encrypted and erasure-coded. They cannot read it. But the node operators can go offline and your retrieval slows down. I tested it, restore took 4 hours for 50GB. Backblaze took 20 minutes. https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage

I just want to say thank you to everyone in this thread. I set up rclone to Wasabi yesterday using what MeritBudi and svendeal said. First backup running now.

First backup is the longest. Next ones are fast if you use rclone --backup-dir or similar.

I use JetBackup on my cPanel host. Is that considered host backup or my own? I can download the backups.
