In light of the recently announced price increase, I’m seriously considering moving all my backups from B2 to Storj as Storj is only charging $0.004/GB . As it’s mostly just a backup, I don’t really need the free egress and I travel a lot so not being tied to a single DC location is also appealing. What do you guys think? Anyone using Storj? What has your experience been like so far?

    I still have my 150GB free account from Storj which I use for some backups so I can’t speak from a paying customer perspective. From my experience, it’s okay – never really had downtime (at least I never noticed) and I couldn’t say anything negative about it. It does have a “per segment fee” so just be aware of that.

      That segment fee is really hard to understand for a new customer

      $0.0000088 per segment. Each segment is at most 64mb, so 1tb is at least 16k segments.

      1 tb in 100k files is $5 per month instead of the advertised $4
