Backblaze B2 Freenas



Getting Started With FreeNAS 11 Install, Configure, Setup Users, Setup Shares & How Snapshots Work. How to set up a home file server using FreeNAS. Backing Up FreeNAS and TrueNAS to Backblaze B2. Tech Support¶ Please submit any technical issue into our forum. Can confirm FreeNAS works as expected - this ticket should be closed. Thanks for your help! The issue was that Backblaze / B2 would retain old copies of files after deletion for about 3-4 days. This happens even when 'File Lifecycle' is set to 'Keep only the last version'.

Feature #23441

What is Backblaze’s B2 Cloud Storage Anyways? Effectively, you pay a monthly flat rate of $0.005 per Gigabyte of B2 Storage. And when you need to pull down any of that storage, you pay $0.01 per gigabyte of download. At the moment, there’s nearly 11 TB of data on my NAS, but I. The default of -transfers 4 is definitely too low for Backblaze B2 though. Note that uploading big files (bigger than 200 MB by default) will use a 96 MB RAM buffer by default. There can be at most -transfers of these in use at any moment, so this sets the upper limit on the memory used. About us: Who we are, what we’re trying to achieve, and the type of people we love to work with.

Another TrueNAS customer has asked about adding Backblaze support as soon as practical as S3 storage is.... shall we say 'expensive'.

#6 Updated by Sean Fagan over 3 years ago

For what purpose? The current file-level backup, or offsite pool/dataset replication?

#7 Updated by Joshua Sirrine over 3 years ago

Wasabi Vs Backblaze B2

File-level backups.

Of course, there are clear opportunities for zfs replication, but that gets complicated because of initials versus changes, etc.

I would say that it may be smarter to keep this feature request for file-level backups, and leave the zfs snapshotting for another feature ticket for the future. I know Kris and I have talked about zfs replication to things like backblaze and s3 storage, but it is much more complicated than file-level backups.

Thanks!
