rsync.net
Not cheap, ($.80gb/month) but bulletproof, and about as hacker-friendly as it gets. As you may be entirely unsurprised to hear, you can use rsync with it, as well as sftp, webdav, etc, etc, etc.
- sabj 16y agoI had heard about this before, and I think it is really great - for small amounts. For backing up my laptop hard drive (~250 GB) and everything I normally would keep backed up (another... 1 TB?) or even some fraction thereof, this would get SUPER expensive. :( What I really need backed up: - Documents (~5GB) - Photos (~20GB) What I would _like_ backed up includes everything to do a full drive recovery, but beyond that, music [40 GB] and other harder-to-replace things. If I can't backup all my backups, that's fine, but I think under even the bare-bones situation, rsync would be outside my budget :)
- sbierwagen 16y agoI use rsync to back up compressed text, .rc files, etc. The critically important stuff, that in meatspace would go in a safe. Photos, music, and movies (the kind of stuff that would be on bookshelves) get backed up to terabyte hard drives in USB external boxes. The difference here is that the important stuff is also on those drives. "Importance" here means how many times it's replicated, and how far apart the backups are.
- dangravell 16y agoOne of my favourite things about rsync.net is the support: you seem to get access to an engineer (or at least someone that knows what they are talking about) immediately.
