SEPT 2026 audit

A comparison of Bunny Storage and IDrive e2 built from values read directly from each provider's own documentation, with the source recorded against every figure.

The short answer

Choose Bunny Storage if…

Assets served from a CDN, where paying per replicated region buys latency you would otherwise build yourself — and traffic to Bunny's CDN costs nothing.

Editorial · Palash Bagchi · approved

Choose IDrive e2 if…

Bulk storage where the per-GB rate dominates — $6 per TB is roughly a quarter of S3's and well under Wasabi's, with no API fees and no minimum retention period.

Consider something else if…

  • Bunny Storage: Replication is the price axis, so multi-region storage costs a multiple of single-region rather than a premium, and it is a CDN origin rather than a general-purpose S3 endpoint.
  • IDrive e2: The minimum charge is billed per whole terabyte, so a 100 GB workload pays for 1 TB, and egress is only free up to three times what you store.

The small bar above a value is inetGeek's own lean toward that side — computed from the same facts shown, never a number the provider published. See the picker below "The short answer" to weigh only the criteria you care about.

Documented by only one.

These criteria are published by one provider and not the other. An absence here means we have not found a source, not that the feature is missing.

Pricing modelBunny Storage: Per region rather than per gigabyte alone: replication is the price axis, so cost scales with how many of Bunny's regions hold a copy. True pay-as-you-go with a $1 monthly minimum and no commitments.
Storage (entry plan)IDrive e2: None on a paid account. IDrive e2 bills a minimum of $6 per TB charged per whole terabyte, so storing under 1 TB still costs a full terabyte — a floor on the bill rather than storage you are given. A 10 GB free trial is offered separately.
Minimum storage durationIDrive e2: None. IDrive e2 states no minimum data retention restriction, unlike Wasabi's 90 days and the S3 infrequent-access classes' 30 to 180.
S3-compatible APIIDrive e2: Supported
