I got a B2 account for my homelab backup. For a long time I was paying $0.52 about twice a year. Now after getting up to around 300gb it's about $1.50 a month.
Cheers, yeah I had looked at that but it would blow out the costs for me vs the cost of personal/unlimited. I'm not a data hoarder in the usual sense but have several TB of personal data - photos, videos etc.
I mostly just backup hard to find things and best quality photos for the household. Everything else would be an inconvenience at best and isn't worth the money.
Though there is a few files I recovered from CD-R disc rot also in the mix. Can't lose my early HTML learning phase even if I forgot it all now. Making IE5.5 work was ART, with all that broken markup most browsers ignored.
