## Uploading large amounts of data  
**Technical Help**  
Jan 29, 2025  
As I do not need it very often, I went with Backblaze, chunking the download into pieces and checking them afterwards. Speed is okay, it takes more time to unpack the data. Disadvantage is egress cost, for frequent uses of the data I would consider Wasabi.
