Been testing for a few weeks and now in the process of uploading my pictures as off-site backup. So far enjoyed the dashboard and process of storing data. Speeds same as other storage providers from my local network. I am using rclone. I also like the fact you can name buckets whatever you want. If all goes wrong I still have a copy on AWS. I like to maintain two off-site copies. Recently dropped B2. I will monitor Storj for a few months and pull some archives to test. I have hashes of all my archives. I store pictures into 5GB archive chunks which helps with reducing 64mb segments (a unique concept no other providers have). Watch out for the $0.007 egress (25GB free each month).
