I will look into this. How do backups work for that? With my host, I can do a one-click download of a full backup at any time.
A cloud provider sounds like bare storage without those kinds of services.
How big do you allow uploads to be?

If you're using cloud provider, honestly, you don't need to back it up. it's redundant on their infra. perhaps some human error could wipe a bucket out, but that's what versioning is for if you're worried about you as a user doing something stupid.
I guess it certainly can't hurt, but IMO, for my use case, it's a waste of money to even think about it.
once a year or so, i copy the bucket to a deep glacier just in case. it costs some money to do that.

When I moved to XF from VB. I did analyze all of them, aws, cloudflare, digitalocean, clouds. none of them guarantee you data recover in case of HDD gets damaged. I did choose Dedicated server 500GB NVME & 14TB HDD moumted as separate directory internal data, where all files go.
After 1 year there was no space. So, added another 3 HHD 18TB each. started to upload via FTP. Now again I have a space issue, total files size is about 50TB,
so will replace old ones with new 24TB HDD each, total 90TB is enough for another year. we have 10GB file upload size

That's a boat load of HDD space! You storing the USA National Archives and the Congressional Library?
I would be moving away from SSD to do something like that. Did you notice anything get slower due to using old spinner drives?
