1TB for $8/month isn’t bad. Cheaper than Google anyway.Never mind, it’s actually more expensive than Google and others. See below.I’d rather go for something with E2EE anyway.
Hetzner Storagebox is $3.5/M for 1TB
What are you basing that off of??
Google is 2TB for $10/month.
$8.33/month with the annual plan.
This says $20/month. https://one.google.com/about/plans
Is there a cheaper drive-only option?
The page you linked shows an annual plan of 100$ for 2 TB which means 8.33 per month.
Doh, I misread. I saw $20 and thought that was the monthly price, but that’s actually for 2 months, before annual discount. Never mind.
So…yeah, who is Rakuten trying to compete with?
Cryptomator is free and about as easy as encryption comes.
