Far from it really.

Backblaze is much cheaper, and can have free egress when using Cloudflare with it.

There is also Storj, a decentralized storage coin and it gives 150 GB for free + $4/TB with free egress matching what you stored.

another one is IDrive E2, it $4/tb, with the first year costing the same as a single month, with egress for free up to about three times the size of what's stored.

Hetzners storage boxes are pretty cheap, but that is for a reason.

The upload speed is pretty slow outside Hetzners network (from my experience) and more importantly is that data is only protected by a single RAID cluster.

They also offer free Unlimited egress.

But I would personally go with Backblaze or maybe IDrive.




Sorry but i asked for a european offering, Backblaze is a US company, as is IDrive. I should have been less ambiguous when i wrote "in europe".


Then yeah, Hetzner or Contabo Object storage seem to be the way to go.


Well, OVH is a similar price as Hetzner but offers a real storage service (not just DIY) and Contabo is 4x as expensive.
