Thanks, I'll look into this after lunch. -- nm - David Aug 4, 11:13 1
- My coworker uses it. Really likes it for the "drive" aspect of it. Not a backup solution per se, but a real drive he can access -- nm - oblique Aug 4, 11:28
A number of the services claim "unlimited" though. (I imagine the initial backup would take... a long time.) -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:05 6
- Amazon S3 is always an option also but you pay simply per GB and for the transfer bandwidth -- nm - oblique Aug 4, 11:07 5
  - I meant stuff like Mozy, Carbonite, Crashplan, etc. They all claim unlimited. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:08 4
    - What to watch out for is that all of those are true backup services and you cannot access the files "live" like a drive. Livedrive is a little - oblique Aug 4, 11:27 1
      - that's true. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:28
    - The thing I worry about with all of them is sustainability. I know that Amazon is going to be around. -- nm - David Aug 4, 11:24 1
      - True, althought Mozy is backed by EMC which will also probably be around for a while -- nm - oblique Aug 4, 11:27
