Making sure Duplicati only add files to remote storage, no updates

Hey @TedTomato check the links in this post. I was trying to do exactly what you’re trying to do now with Oracle although I used Wasabi. They have the same thing in place. $5.99/month per TB. There’s a minimum retention policy in place for 90 days for normal accounts. If you prepay for larger quantities upfront they’ll kick this down to 30 days. There’s no egress fees however you can only download as much data as you store with them in a month.

ie: You store 400gb with them, so that means you can only have up to 400gb worth of egress data in a month before they take notice and say, “whoa bud your egress was 900gb every month for 3 months” lol.

Here’s a few posts that are worth reading (All of them created before I fully understood exactly how Duplicati runs under the hood):
