Why this works well
- Keep both copies — this is copy, not move, so your Google Drive files stay exactly where they are
- B2 is inexpensive, durable storage built for exactly this — a second copy you don't touch day to day
- Run it again anytime — there's no continuous sync yet, so re-run the job on whatever cadence fits your backup routine
How to do it
- Connect Google Drive and add your Backblaze B2 bucket.
- Select the folders or files you want protected.
- Choose your B2 bucket as the destination and start the copy.
- Confirm completion in your feed, or via notifications.
FAQ
Is this continuous, automatic backup?
Not yet — you run it on demand or queue it manually. Scheduled/recurring sync is on the roadmap.
Does this delete anything from Google Drive?
No. This is a copy — your Google Drive files are untouched. If you want to move (and delete the source), use our plain transfer page instead.
Can I back up into a specific bucket or folder?
Yes — pick the bucket when you connect B2, then set a destination path when you start the job.
