encrypted, there is no max file size, ect ect, play with there free ver or give the 30 day free trial a go.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

<u></u><u></u>California<u></u><u></u><br>
later this month, which has made me take a look at my backup<br>
procedures.<br>
<br>
While I have good software for backups (rdiff-backup is pretty<br>
awesome), finding a way to get the data truly offsite is easier said<br>
than done. The problem with most backup procedures is that anything<br>
requiring manual intervention will eventually become an "I'll do that<br>
later" task. For example, the idea of storing an external hard drive<br>
in a safe deposit box occurred to me, but that limits access to<br>
business hours and requires manual intervention. I'm sure it would<br>
happen for the first few weeks, and then every now and then for a<br>
while, and then not at all until I need the data.<br>
<br>
I've also considered cloud storage providers, but between my wife and<br>
I, we have ~1TB of data to backup, and growing at ~100GB/yr. This<br>
makes something like Amazon S3 rather expensive: even at reduced<br>
redundancy pricing of 9.3 cents/gigabyte, this is an annual bill of<br>
$1100 before the bandwidth used to ship it around.<br>
<br>
Another thought I've had is running my own "cloud storage" by coloing<br>
a 1U atom server with about 4 SATA drives crammed into it, but that<br>
seems like it's not going to pay off until I get to the ~4TB space<br>
range.<br>
<br>
Anyone have recommendations on a good offsite solution for home use?<br>
