I'm looking for a diskspace of possibly 1TB online

Edit: my idea is to use it like as an external harddisk for everyday stuff. Encrypt the disk, put my filesystem on it, mount it as external drive kinda. Never worry about backups or lost data etc, as the provider would take care of it

Depends what you want to do but Backblaze B2 is reasonably cheap. $6 per TB

It's reasonably cheap and you pay only for what you use.

Yeah that's the best for me. I use about 600GB.

500GB plans aren't enough and 1TB plans are too much. Paying what you use is so good.

Heck yeah, it's great. Wasabi is nice too, but keep in mind they bill differently for storage vs retrieval.
