Online Backup of your files

IN this day of fast internet connections and people having experienced the realiaty of data disasters , online backup of your photos and documents can be a very good idea. The prices have been much too high for me and I have been waiting for them to become reasonable.

following a slahdot link about how to build a 67 terrabyte storage device for 8K USD , which looks geek cock hardening - Petabytes on a budget: How to build cheap cloud storage | Backblaze Blog - I had a look at their service.

$5 USD per month or $50 USD per year seems to be an excellent price , and encrypted storage checks the privacy checkbox .

so if you are looking for a way to backup your photos , docs and other that is not available via bittorrent you might want to consider this solution
