Hi everyone,

I would like to ask your opinions on reliable cloud storage providers for media. I have a media collection that isn’t too big (about 2-3TB) that I’d like to store on the cloud since I’ll be moving in the future and don’t think I can handle multiple hard drives.

What do you suggest? Any issues I should be looking at? I came across Wasabi too, along with the more expensive Scaleway and Cloudflare R2 offerings. For now Backblaze seems fine in terms of reliability, but has anyone come across complaints from them regarding what is stored on their servers?

Thanks!

    I’ve been using Backblaze B2 since 2020 for this exact purpose and I’ve had no issues. It’s been reliable and cheap to run. I stream to my phone from their servers with no issues.

      I’m very interested in your use-case: could you tell me how you achieved streaming from their servers to your mobile? What services do you use and how did you set that up?
