Shouldn't you be using something like Amazon S3 at that scale?
- scott_karana 9y agoWhy? A serious hobbyist photographer (for example) could easily generate that many legitimate files. S3 isn't a reasonable alternative for them.
- Dylan16807 9y agoS3 is expensive per byte, and your use of "that scale" confuses me for an amount that's only about 15% of a new hard drive.
- rphlx 9y agoDespite some occasional competition between 3+ of them, all of the large cloud providers continue to treat 1TB like it's still yuge - and something that only a for-profit enterprise willing to spend hundreds of dollars a year (or more) on storage may encounter.
- make3 9y agoI was more thinking about the quantity of files
- Dylan16807 9y agoSave some web pages and install some portable programs into the folders you want backed up and the number of files adds up fast.
- virtualized 9y agoIsn't Dropbox basically a sync client for S3?
- askvictor 9y agoDropbox now uses its own data centres.
