That’s perfect for your writing and standard documents, reasonable enough for your iPhone photos, but both far too small and expensive to back up RAW footage.Įnterprise, developer-focused cloud storage is far more scalable and reasonably priced-and confusing. You’ll spend $9.99/month for 2TB of iCloud, Google Drive, or Dropbox storage. What’s still not exactly cheap is cloud storage.
At that rate, even 5TB hard drives start sounding small. That’s a good thing, when your average RAW photo today weighs in at 40-80MB, when one gigabyte will only store 3 minutes of standard 4K footage or less than a second of RAW 8K footage. Now, for a third of that price, you can get a 6TB external hard drive or a 1TB SSD. The first consumer 1TB hard drive cost $399. If you want to try for yourself, you can have a free month if you click on this here.Now, anyhow. But if you’re like me and only want to backup all of your data without spending too much time with configurations and worrying about if it’s safe or not, this is the thing you were looking for! Backblaze is cheap, really easy to use and backups all of your files.įor the people who want more control over their backup, maybe another solution is better. I really recommend this service for anyone who has a big amount of files. I think this will depend on the Internet connection. Too simple for people who want to have full control.Options to restore by email or flash drive/hard drive by mail.Restores multiple backups up to 30 days.I could use this for Backup, but I would need to pay 15€/month to get unlimited space!īackblaze doesn’t have the feature of easily create folders to share, but I really don’t need it, because it’s a service for Backup. Dropbox is a really cool service, but I think it’s more for the users who want to easily share files with other people. With this setup, I can rest assure that my photos and videos are safe! 🙂Īnd you are think. An advantage of this system is that I can access my account on the Backblaze website and I can retrieve my files from anywhere on the world with an Internet connection. If you haven’t read my Post about Backup of photos and videos, check it here!īackblaze is on this case an insurance for my files, in case all else fails. In case there’s a failure on the drive or something happens to my house (well I hope not.), like robbery or fire, I will have the backup drive.
One is at home and the other is with a friend of mine. My setup now is two external drives, with the same files on both of them and Backblaze.
