Indicative rates (2026, EU region; check each provider for the exact figure). Data upload (ingress) is free with every provider. ¹ Wasabi: 90-day minimum retention (early deletes are still billed) and free egress under a fair-use policy (must not exceed what you store). ² Backblaze B2: egress free up to 3× your stored data per day; beyond that ~€0.01/GB. With OtterStorage, storage is the only thing billed: requests, deletes, ingress and egress are always free. Disk technology: only OtterStorage lets you choose HDD, SSD, or NVMe per bucket; the rest use access-frequency storage classes, with no choice of disk type.

Pricing

Billing questions.

How is storage billed? +
Per TB stored per month, based on the bucket's disk technology (HDD €8, SSD €16, NVMe €45 per TB and month), prorated. No minimum commitment.
Do you charge for requests or operations? +
No. API requests (PUT, GET, LIST…) carry no charge. You pay only for storage.
Do you charge for deleting objects? +
No. Deletes (DELETE) are free. You can clean up your data with no penalty.
What's the difference between HDD, SSD, and NVMe? +
The disk technology your objects live on: HDD prioritizes cost (backups, archival), SSD balances price and performance (production), and NVMe delivers maximum latency and throughput (datasets, AI).
Can I mix technologies? +
Yes. Choose the technology per bucket based on the type of data: hot data on SSD/NVMe and copies on HDD.
