As I wrote here I am using Wuala. I mostly like it. I don’t like not be anymore able to give away some storage space for others and in return be able to use other people’s storage space. It was a neat point of Wuala, but that was “fixed” last year, and then it’s either pay or stop using it (beside the small initial space everyone gets).
Welcome to CrashPlan. It’s quite similar compared to Wuala but with 2 differences which I like a lot:
- You can back up to your own disks or friends disks
- If you pay, it’s unlimited data and deleted files are kept
That sounds like a good deal, but with prices for 2TB disks (even after the disaster in Thailand) at about US$150, it probably works out fine for them.
I’ll have to test this a bit more, but so far, it looks like a good backup method. Time to upgrade our ADSL line…
