I’m looking into getting an extra backup solution for my laptop, and a backup solution for my NAS/media server. Currently, my laptop backs up to my local NAS, and Proton Drive, while my server has no additional backup.

Is using something like Backblaze B2 actually private and secure, especially if I use the personal encryption key I can set? Or is there another online service that may be better and more private?

      As long as they’re physically separated so you don’t get screwed if there’s a fire or something. And if you’re DIY-ing, use multiple separate places (friends houses, work, etc).

      Flash loses memory over many years. I’d use like 3 different mediums and always keep a hash of the key with the key.
