[Repost] Reliable alternatives to AWS Deep Glacier for ~5TB?
Hi everyone,
As always, every time I look at the AWS Glacier egress fee calculator I get fairly irked at how much they charge. Was wondering if anyone knew of any alternatives for cold storage in the cloud without such egregious charges. I will likely not access it ever because I have another offset backup, but just in case I do, I wouldn't want to fork over thousands, really.
I don't know how reliable Scaleway's service is, and Cloudflare's R2 doesn't have a Archive offering. I would be interested in the Azure if anyone can convince me that I won't go bankrupt trying to retrieve my data from them. I don't want to go with Google with the recent stuff they have been doing with data on their servers.
Thanks!

I use idrive e2. When I did the math it's yearly up front cost works out what deep archive is without an egress fee and it's quicker. In the fine print there is a fair use policy on downloads but I think it's 5x the storage amount.
Deep archive storage alone without puts is $24 TB year. idrive is $15 first year $30 subsequent. But it behaves more like s3 standard instant retrieval which is much more expensive.
Small company but have been around a long time now.
Yep, iDrive is the way to go, before they raised their prices I got 50 TB for a year for $500. I moved everything back locally, now I'm just going to use them for off-site backups. You can't beat $15 for 1 TB for a year.
