Have a look at http://www.perfectbackup.co.uk it will backup your data offsite and also run a local backup to a NAS or USB drive at the same time. That way you have an onsite and offsite backup.

I have a back up regimen, which suits me just fine, however with the price of backup software and one package not doing, as I want it to. Has led me to believe that buying a rather inexpensive internal HDD in the 1 to 1.5 TB range. At present, the prices are relatively cheap in comparison and the ROI is very short.

The current store price (on-line) the store price might be lower once in the door is:
SATA2 1.0TB SEAGATE 7200.12 32M ST31000528AS $99.00 CAD
SATA2 1.5TB SEAGATE 7200.11 32M ST31500341AS $139.00 CAD = 500 GB for $40. Extra CAD

The current system has 1.4 TB of which only a fraction is being used doubling plus a bit ensures years of stable encrypted in-house backups.

I do not trust any off site Internet backup scheme one does not know who is behind the scenes and if they have access to the files.

Also there is running a system in full RAID mode where C: is mirrored onto D: … makes life easy for sure.

Hard drive crashes suck but I’ve never heard of a data recovery place charging for a failed recovery. It’s usually “no data, no charge”.

I followed friends’ advice and bought a portable hard disk drive this last summer. After a summer with family and friends I decided to start sharing my photos and videos (as well as saving them to DVDs) but to my surprise, the HDD was inoperable! Yes, I contacted the manufacturer and they would replace it but not my memories… and if I decide to send it to a data recovery place, the warranty will be void and on top of paying the data recovery fee (which by the way, is not guaranteed), I will have to pay for a new portable drive. I guess I will give it a try to online backup systems.
