So what do you guys think of all the current "cloud" or online backups solutions? Are they worth it, do you have one, if so, which?
I've been looking into them extensively for the past week because I'll be buying my new laptop soon and I'll be going off to college and I'll definitely want a good backup solution.
So far I've looked into many different options and the best online backup solutions for the price seem to be Backblaze, Mozy, Carbonite, and Amazon S3. Mozy, Carbonite, and Backblaze all offer unlimited, secure storage for about 50 bucks a year, while S3 has a bit more complicated pricing plan that favors lower storage amounts and a smaller number of transfers per month. I think that right now I'm favoring Carbonite because their Mac client is better than Mozy and Backblaze's restoration options just seem annoying - you have to restore files from their web client, at which point they zip your files and email you a link. Their other restore options include DVDs ($89 extra) and an external HDD wit your data (+ $190).
There are also many more options out there with better or different options, so what do you guys think?
