Select a Data Region

When you create a Backblaze Computer Backup account, you choose whether that account’s data is stored in the US East region, the US West region, or the EU Central region. The choice that you make during account creation dictates where all of that account’s data is stored. After you create your Backblaze account, you cannot change your selected region.
