Hi everyone,
I’ve started pushing backups of media important to me (family pictures, video etc) to backblaze with client-side encryption.
However, are they a reliable storage provider? I can’t help but compare them to something like Amazon who likely has a better chance of maintaining my files but they are so expensive that I don’t even bother.
What do you think? Yes, I’ve heard of 3-2-1, however for now I only have backblaze and a local backup. I’m trying not to spend too much on this.
Thanks!
Backblaze is a great backup solution. They publish drive stats and even show you the hardware they use.

I’m worried about reliability; what are the chances that they will lose my data? I have a local backup but I’m also feeling paranoid
