Backblaze B2

Overview

S3-compatible cloud storage for off-site backups of critical homelab data. Configured as a Cold storage tier in TrueNAS and as a rclone remote for Obsidian vault sync.

Key Facts

  • Service: Backblaze B2 (S3-compatible)
  • Purpose: Off-site backup of configuration, documents, and selected data
  • Cost: ~$7/mo
  • TrueNAS integration: B2 bucket configured as Cold storage tier in TrueNAS SCALE
  • Obsidian vault sync: rclone remote b2-homelab-backups syncs vault to B2 bucket
  • Access: Application key-based authentication (not AWS credentials)

TrueNAS Configuration

TrueNAS exports backblaze-b2 remote as a Cloud Sync channel. Datasets backed up include:

  • Obsidian vault snapshots
  • Homelab agent configs and session history
  • Database backups
  • truenas — TrueNAS B2 Cold tier configuration
  • rustfs — S3 service running on TrueNAS (local S3, NOT Backblaze)
  • nfs-storage — local NFS storage vs. cloud backup strategy
