Has anyone tried to use kdrive form infomaniak as clone of directory where immich stores photos? Does it make any sense? I think it is one of the cheapest options right now for backup.
I had Infomaniak for a while, and tried the kdrive, as like you, it was the cheapest cloud drive storage. However I gave up with Infomaniak as in the end they felt a bit, er, fussy in the way they ran it all. It just didn’t fill me with confidence.
For me, for all archiving, the simplest solution has always been Backblaze Personal backup. Yes its an extra cost per month, but it will also backup all of your main computer, and any external drives. You can add an encryption key too. The only downside is it being a US company.
I have a 5TB external USB that dupes all my docker stuff as well from my server to my Mac, so it’s an all-in-one backup solution for me.
Extrrnal drive would be great if I had another location where I could keep it ;)
I backup my whole NAS to AWS S3 glacier deep storage. I use rclone to encrypt it client side and perform incremental syncs. It is slow and costs extra to pull the data out, but I pay roughly $2/mo for all of my data to live there
I wouldnt spend my money there. Kdrive seems cheap with no cost of dara retrieval
Fair, this is just by far the cheapest per GB in my experience and I don’t have any privacy concerns since I encrypt everything before it leaves my server. But to each their own
