I heard about a cloud-based backup service from KelbyOne (a pay-for-play Photography site). Scott Kelby, in one of his many training tutorials, mentioned a backup service called Backblaze. I am trying the free 14-day trial. The service allows you to backup your entire computer HD plus any external drives you have connected (except network (NAS) drives). It runs in the background and you can either set it to do scheduled backups or just have it perform continuous backups in the background (I've seen no noticeable degradation in computer performance (so far) while it's backing up in the background).
The service is only $5 per month for unlimited storage or $50 per year ($10 savings). If you ever need to do a restore, you can log pin and do individual file or directory restore over the internet, or you can have them send you either a flash USB drive (up to 128GB) or a full hard drive for larger restores. You pay a fee for them to send you a Hard Drive by FedEx or similar service, then once you have completed the restore you send the drive back for a refund.
Anyway, I'm trying their free 14-day trial. Has anyone else heard of them or using them?
