You have over 70TB of data you want to backup? That’s a lot. How are you making backups of that for only 99/year?
I have a 190TB NAS, and Backblaze is $99 for unlimited. At least it was until now
Backblaze is definitely losing money on you every year, so good luck finding an alternative. I pay $100+/month just in power and network costs to have my own hardware colocated in a real data center, and that's saving me money compared to renting 200TB anywhere else.
Oh, I definitely know I'm not a profitable customer for them. My home electricity bill for my NAS is already a multiple of my Backblaze subscription
