As an alternative to you holiday off-site backup plan, you could checkout backblaze.com. I haven't tried the service yet, but they offer unlimited backup space for $5/mo.or $50/year. The only reason I haven't tried this is I'm just not sure how long that initial upload would take, what with 500+ gigs of stuff to backup :)
If you used to augment your full backup though, it would be a good last resort, failsafe backup
- sstrudeau 17y agoI've been using Backblaze. Love it. It's the perfect "I don't have to think about it" backup system. Cheap. Off-site. No worrying about usage limits. Automatic.
- chime 17y agoIs Backblaze fast? I use Mozy and it really sucks. It's slow, the Windows app takes FOREVER to show me my files and the web-interface is just plain bad. I'm looking for an alternative but I don't want to switch to yet another app that's just as bad.
- nooneelse 17y agoAnyone able to compare Backblaze and CrashPlan (I'm was about to start using it this weekend) from personal experience? Looks like several computers can be done with cheaper with CrashPlan, but maybe that misses something I should consider.
