- moe 12y ago= success rsync.net is 20x more expensive than Google Nearline ($0.20/GB). Why would anyone choose to use it for Arq when Arq supports both?
- smtddr 12y agoWhile I personally don't mind Google having all my backup data, we must appreciate the fact that in this post-Snowden world some people will justifiably refuse to go with the big USA-corp players like Amazon or Google. rsync.net just saying: "Hey, we're not Google or Amazon" is already a big selling point for some.
- rsync 12y agoI encourage you to email us and ask about the HN readers discount. Further, Amazon S3 is a better comparison, as far as pricing goes - we're fully live, online, random access storage - not nearline or weirdline like google/glacier.
