Wasabi Explorer For Cloud Storage Download
Tristan Brancheau
Wasabi hot cloud storage is designed to be used with S3-compatible storage applications that are typically obtained by our customers. To make it easier to find the right app, Wasabi has validated over 200 third-party S3-compatible apps for use with our service. A full list of the validated apps and instructions on how to configure them for use with Wasabi is provided in our knowledge base.
For customers that are not yet sure which S3-compatible storage app to use with Wasabi and simply want to access Wasabi in their Windows or Mac environment, we do provide the free Wasabi Explorer (powered by MSP 360) desktop app described below. Because the free Wasabi Explorer app does not provide all of the functionality our customers may need, we also recommend several third-party apps that can be used for the simple use case of mounting hot cloud storage as a disk volume.
These apps are provided and supported by the third-party app provider. These apps generally provide more features than Wasabi Explorer, including the ability to mount Wasabi hot cloud storage as a disk volume on your Windows or Mac host.
Wasabi is ideal for cloud-based active archiving, immutable backups, ransomware mitigation, video files, big data analytics, content delivery, or as backend storage for any S3-compatible application. Syncing important files to Wasabi or other storage devices is an option for many users because:
To obtain and share files better or more securely, many users use NAS to create private cloud servers. This allows for easy storage and retrieval of personal data, and backup of home theater and game data. But many users find it difficult to sync NAS and Wasabi data. do not worry! MultCloud can also help you automatically sync your NAS to Wasabi.
I'm using rclone with Wasabi for backups and storage. I have one bucket which I only use for rclone. Now I have the problem that the size of my bucket shown by Wasabi is way larger than the size of all my files if I run rclone size wbac: or aws s3 ls --summarize --human-readable --recursive s3:// --endpoint-url= -central-1.wasabisys.com .
Now how I think how I got this problem. Every time I start my pc I run a script which uses copy and sync to backup some folders of mine. One file I have is 36GB large. Since my internet connection is to slow and I didn't let my pc run long enought, this file couldn't be uploaded at one time. This resulted in a total of about 300 GB of encrypted chunk files, since reclone did always start the procress of uploading again. I did not realize this problem untill a few days ago, when I was wondering why my bucket is so large. I then used Wasabi explorer to delete these files manually. I think this was the problem. Now if I use rclone or aws cli to show the size of my bucket it is 300GB smaler but the size shown by wasabi is the same as before.

I changed my rclone config so that everything was pointing to the new bucket. Now has the correct size. I than asked the wasabi support to have my deleted storage charges of the old bucket waived and they kindly did that.
Then I had one last problem. I don't know why, but for some files (less than 10%) the modification date has been changed. I suspect by the aws s3 cp command. Therefore I used rclone sync path/to/local/folder wbac: --refresh-times to have the correct modification time. This stopps rclone from uploading all files with a falsely changed modification date to upload again. And now everything is as I want it to be .
One of the most common uses for cloud object storage is to be the target destination for commercial backup and recovery software, like MSP360 (formerly CloudBerry Backup), CommVault, Cohesity, and Veeam. Popular free and open source backup and recovery software like BorgBackup, restic, duplicati, and Bacula works with Wasabi, too.
Wasabi provides a free cloud storage browsing tool with a graphical user interface (GUI) available free of charge. Open source projects like Cyberduck and Mountain Duck provide a polished experience when browsing, synchronizing and transferring data. Backup software like restic and MSP360 also are compatible with Wasabi.
To integrate Wasabi cloud storage with MASV file transfer, simply sign-up for a MASV account, go to the cloud integrations tab inside the MASV browser app, select Wasabi from the dropdown options, fill out the required fields and bucket information, and hit Connect.
