10TB online backup: was $99.50 now $4.98 at iDrive - Save 95%

For Techradar readers, IDrive has doubled the amount of storage it offers to 10TB while keeping the same price $4.98 for the first year. That is the biggest amount of cloud storage data - by far - at this price point.


Not sure how authentic or safe it is.

Their service is fine. However, they are known for some shady practices like immediately closing the account if you don't renew, making you lose all your files, and charging several hundred dollars for breaching their limits. Not sure a 1-year deal is worth it.
 
Was a user of Mega.nz few years ago until they held my data hostage from viewing, downloading, sharing until I upgrade my account. now they seem to have deleted my data completely.
Syncing Gdrive shared drive with my own Heroku Deployed Telegram Bot was very productive and convenient until Heroku free service was stopped. Anyways
Thank you for your suggestions I'll look into it.
 
First year ₹500, next years are ₹10k .
Once you have your TBs of data on that drive, it's even harder to switch to a cheap provider. Now that's the razor and blade model.
if my data is around 5+TB , for which the 10TB is quite recommended space, I'd buy 10TB drives from @aasimenator at around 10-12k and make a NAS myself. In 2+ year my costs would be break even.
The chances of physical drive failure is there in NAS which is normally less chance in cloud. But even hardware is hardware and hardware fails. We've seen a crypto wallet provider was hacked and all users' balances were washed out. YMMV.
