<p>Mozy wanted to charge me ~2k to hold my data, and I was with them when they where still unlimited. </p>

<p>Same here. I've been very happy with Mozy. Totally hands off and rock solid. </p>

I use Mozy home edition from EMC. It works great and it's relatively inexpensive. I pay $9.99 a month for 125GB of backup. I think they have smaller plans as well. As far as ease of use. I set it up on my Mac and I just let it run. Every so often I log into the web site and make sure my files are there and I try to download a copy to test the restore. <br>

I have some older relatives who could use a better backup solution for<br>
their work files. They work from home and mostly use office files, which<br>
are not huge. Yes they are running windows.<br>
<br>
So, there are two things I am considering, remote backup to one of the<br>
many services available, and/or a utility to copy the contents of their<br>
work folder on the laptop over to a usb hard drive in the background.<br>
<br>
Any personal experience/recommendations? It ideally should be something<br>
that I could set up on the laptop and not worry about unless they have a<br>
crash on the laptop itself. If it takes regular maintenance on their end<br>
it might not work out.<br>
<br>
If I have the files on the laptop syncing to a hard drive do I have to<br>
worry about unfortunate deletions propagating over?<br>
