Please let us know how much you end up paying, too: 4TB NAS HDD is about
a hundred bucks, one-off,


You are absolutely right when this is the first and only one storage copy
of your backups.
But when it is a second off-site copy then it becomes harder to maintain a
low price.
Then something like S3 will help a lot.

That is why/when I started looking at amanda and bacula.

My university runs a backup service where we only pay for storage. We ran with it for a couple of years and the money quickly added up to where it was cheaper to buy a new storage chassis full of sata drives *every other year* and have it co-located at CompSci a few blocks away.

The only way I can see this working out is you absolutely must have your backups of-site and have absolutely nowhere to colocate your backup box, or if your colo charges will be comparable to S3.
