S3 compatible? Wasabi is $.99/TB more, but has no egress or API fees whatsoever. So depending on use, it can be cheaper. For archiving purposes, Amazon Deep Glacier is a lot cheaper for storage (but expensive for retrieval).

Non-S3? Take a look at Hetzner Storage Box.

Note that Wasabi has no egress fees, but has a transfer limit - essentially the contract stipulates that your monthly egress will be less than the amount of storage you pay for.

I use Archive Storage in Oracle Cloud S3 for my dr backups which is their equivalent of AWS deep glacier archive. It's quite cheap, no restore fees, inbound traffic is free and outbound traffic is only paid, when you're using more than 10TB per month. (Also first 10 GB of S3 storage is free)
