In response to "looks like Arq just Mac for now." by JaxSean

"Arq automatically backs up all your Macs and PCs to your own cloud account."

Meaning all it handles is the communication and synchronization, not the storage, which makes things much more flexible.

But if I have purchased cloud storage somewhere, wouldn't i already get that? - JaxSean Jan 16, 20:32 8
- I have more data than dropbox allows me to store, so I use Amazon S3. It does not have a dropbox-style interface, it is purely raw storage. - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:35 7
  - got it. thanks. - JaxSean Jan 16, 20:42 5
    - The should be a function lock which will invert those keys back around -- nm - Karl_S Jan 17, 03:59
    - There's usually a software setting to invert that. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:52 3
      - F5 ... that's refresh, right? Technically not necessary on SlackerTalk. Just press the period key (.). -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:53 2
        
        more for running sql -- nm - JaxSean Jan 16, 21:23 1
        
        Oh, fair point. I should use that more when I run my IDE tests ... usually I just use the mouse. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 21:30
  - Of course, I should also entertain the theory that it's not the right fit. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:38
^-- this is for Arq Backup. Arq Cloud Backup has its own storage. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 16, 20:26
