CentOS - Feb 2019 - Please Recommend Affordable and Reliable Cloud Storage for 50 TB of Data

OP - Backblaze Personal. May be like $1/extra per month than your budget.
Unlimited IO and backup storage assuming you only need redundancy.

Still going to take a while on initial upload. (Sounds almost AWS Snowball like
is what you need but too costly).

put tens of GB in it, you can only pull that all down a few times a month before
that user?s account gets locked.  That happened to us with one user that kept
blowing up his laptop, requiring a rebuild, and thus a re-download of the entire
IMAP archive he insisted on keeping in the cloud.

would you really backup into a system, that has closed connectivity?
I'd prefer connecting a way I want: e.g.  SFTP, SSHFS, HTTPS, ...
and not it is given by closed software you don't know ...

For non-sensitive personal data sure, I'd consider it (I consider backblaze
reputable enough). However for more sensitive data or other customization
options, you're really going to have to self-host and supply, like Nextcloud
running on a home NAS/SAN.

It's a personal call on what you are comfortable with. OP asked for a
solution, and is by no means required to use it.
