Do you have any idea what the cost is to restore 50 TB from that?

What happens when they decide to raise the price? It kind of leaves a person trapped there. And it's also not like Amazon hasn't lost data before. About 7 years ago couple of my S3 buckets disappeared and came back 6 months older than when they disappeared.

I'm right around that 50 to 60 TB mark. It's annoying because it's too expensive for hobbiest live storage too big for most removable media storage.

I currently keep a small hot store of the most important things. And I'm slowly splitting up the less important ISOs and putting them on cheap rotational media for cold store.

I'm really sad that crash plan shut down their consumer client. They had a really cool feature where you could run a client locally, run another client at a friend or family member's house and back up to their target with full and to end encryption and encryption at rest. But there doesn't appear to be anything that clean anymore.

Long-term goal, there was a guy I saw about 10 years ago that buried a raspberry pie with a POE hat in a large PVC tube 3 ft underground. He made it a I-SCSI target. I figure if the eight terabyte NVMe's ever come down in price, I'll stack up some PCI Express switching and make something truly magnificent.
