Best method to connect to Hetzner Storagebox


RichardB

Question

Hi all, I am setting up CloudDrive on my Windows server to access a Hetzner Storage Box which I am trying out with a view to using it as an offsite copy of my media files. The plan is to set up the Hetzner box as a CloudDrive pool, then use DrivePool to dupe the data. There is about 10 to 12 TB in total. 

So, I was wondering what the best way to connect might be? Hetzner supports a number of protocols, but which is generally the bestest? Interested more in robustness than speed: this is for an offsite copy that won't be accessed that often, but needs to be kept up with the local copy. 

 

Any thoughts?

Well, no replies to this one, so I thought I would post my own results. I used SFTP. The connection seemed stable, but Hetzner is damn slow. I was only able to get a speed of 3mbps, which meant that it would take over 180 days to copy the 10TB I wanted. So, back to looking for another provider with decent speeds.
