July set a traffic record on the Backblaze network. The Q3 report looks at the larger story: higher CDN baselines, regional shifts, and renewed migration activity.
Lukka moved nearly 3PB of active blockchain data to Backblaze B2, creating a shared data layer for compute in AWS Frankfurt and its on-premises data centers.
The case study explains how it supports continuous ingestion and 9PB+ monthly reads outside AWS: https://t.co/iVpLmN4l6M

Every zero/one-failure drive model this quarter was a Seagate.
One good quarter isn't a verdict on a manufacturer — but it's a clean one worth flagging. Watching next quarter before we call it a trend.
SF Tech Week. TechCrunch Disrupt. Two Afterburns. Backblaze + Flamethrower. A match made in data-storage heaven. 🔥
Two evenings of good food and conversation with founders, builders, investors, and partners. No panels or pitches, just people connecting.
Building something data-heavy? https://t.co/leuDyaJpZw
#SFTechWeek #TechCrunchDisrupt
Seventy-two hours on a train. Five new products. Team Skipper took on a familiar problem — meetings — and won Rocket Mixer's Coast-to-Coast Startup Lab. Backblaze supported Demo Day as a Gold Partner. #SFTechWeek
Our 10TB Seagate posted a 9.33% AFR this quarter.
Sounds alarming until you see the count: 22 failures out of 965 drives. Small population, big-looking percentage. This is why we publish raw counts, not just rates.
Join Sr. Market Intelligence Manager, Stephanie Doyle, and Director, Product Marketing, David Johnson for a live discussion on our Q2 2026 Drive Stats deep dive. Going on now!

The quarterly AFR jumped to 1.73%. Our lifetime AFR moved 0.02 points.
Same drives. Same quarter. That's the difference between "a number swung" and "something actually changed" — and why lifetime AFR is the one to trust.
Interesting people, good conversation, and appetizers. A pretty solid Tuesday night.
A few moments from dinner with startup founders and tech leaders, brought together by James Leaverton. Thanks to everyone who joined us and made it a good night.
Either you know who owns every Mac in your fleet upfront, or you don't. Most teams end up with a mix: devices that came pre-assigned, and devices still waiting for a user.
That mix is where backup coverage breaks down.
Solution Engineers from Jamf and Backblaze walk through building a complete Mac protection strategy in our webinar. You'll see how Backblaze Computer Backup deploys through a Jamf policy like any other app, so backup follows the workflow your team already uses.
