After the exciting conclusions of backing up your computers I hitched my wagon to just renew with the shitheap company and now I have this AIDS acrost my inbox:quote:Thank you for being a CrashPlan® for Home customer. We're honored that you’ve trusted us to protect your data. Owned again. Guess it's carbonite or some other poo poo to back up my measly 2TB of data. Come to think of it with their lovely Java client that requires increasing the JVM memory size to back up more than a million files they loving belong servicing the ~enterprise~

I used to use ARC with glacier but I'm pretty sure if my house burned down I'd never find the Amazon decryption key and my data would be gone forever.

OP you can move right into Crashplan Pro and deal with this again in a couple years. None of the unlimited backup companies are going to stay that way.

look at these scrubs not using Backblaze. they just rolled out their newest revision that you can one-click push a file from your backup to their S3 competitor that's dirt cheap when you quickly want to get a file hosted somewhere.

Millstone posted:nothing good supports a linux use the linux to hold the files, use a windows box to run the backup client, with a symlink to the linux share? if the client software is smart enough to detect the symlink then maybe have the windows box be a virtual machine with its storage located on the linux box edit: or maybe just have the linux setup as an iscsi target and directly mount the linux storage on the windows box that way Farmer Crack-Ass fucked around with this message at 20:40 on Aug 25, 2017 |

this whole thing has got me wondering, so here's a question for folks worried about backup services: if all of the data you've backed up suddenly was gone, irretrievably, what would that mean for you?

I'd be upset and re-sync to a different provider. I'm not trusting my unique content to a single source; local NAS + cloud backup every time.

Important stuff like tax filings, llc paper work, work docs, keepass db have a local copy that reps to one drive in addition to the NAS backup dump which then replicates to a cloud provider. I can do without any of that in some sort of wacky comprehensive EMP kills the world scenario but at that point I think we're hunting each other for food so all bets are off. If someone was loving with me personally and doing a salt the earth type wipe then I'm looking a at least 40 hours of work to piece together what I absolutely need and reset accounts. Stuff like photos are gone for good and that would suck but life would go on, same as having to deal with a house fire.

for "linux ISOs" a great deal of that could be redownloaded. there is some content that would be difficult or unlikely to be found again, which would be unfortunate, but not tragic. a total erasure of all of my data in every location would immediately break my access to a lot of accounts, because I use an offline password manager to manage my credentials to most websites. i imagine most of those would eventually be recoverable; the ones that couldn't would again probably just be unfortunate and inconveniencing, not tragic. the various documents and photos from earlier in life being lost would hurt. it might just be pure nostalgia or self-indulgence, but i like to think there's some value in being able to look back and have some firm remembrance of who i was as a person in years past, and compare and contrast that with where i am today.
