As far as I'm aware Backblaze stores data only within a single datacenter (for a given region). This likely made sense in their original business model of being "offsite" copy of data.
But it very much breaks down for B2 where they're now storing original data. I hope they rethink this model. You do get what you pay for. There's a reason they're cheap.
My org isn't a Backblaze customer but a Wasabi one. Wasabi offers the ability to replicate buckets to other zones at double the cost, of course.
I would imagine Backblaze would offer something similar for original data storage for their customers to choose.
