I'd just finished getting set up on Everpix & syncing everything I have when they announced it was going to close down. It's a shame - it was the most impressive option I'd seen so far.
It's definitely makes me think twice about which service I use next.
- cschmidt 12y agoI've got a pretty big Aperture library, so it will take a long time to sync everything. Loom offered a Aperture import feature, so I was toying with trying them out. Now I don't know what to do.
- akumen 12y agoI just save everything to Amazon Glacier that's not the current year. Current year + library files are dumped into S3 ... rinse and repeat. For photos, I am using Adobe Lightroom and organize files into folders by year/month/day/subject during import. Edited GoPro videos go to YouTube etc and originals/edits straight to Glacier. This takes a bit of effort to set up but works great great.
- mikejarema 12y agoWould you be open to sharing numbers here? For example how much data you're storing on Glacier/S3, monthly data transfer and monthly costs to you?
- akumen 12y agoSure. I have roughly 600GB stored on Glacier and around 50 GB on S3 so far this year. I am yet to spend more than $10/month. Wait, you say, Google Drive is 9.99 for 1T! True, I say, but on AWS you only pay for what you use. So you will realize real saving once you push past your first 1T in cumulative storage.
