Every single computer user has some iportant data. Have you ever imagined, what happens, when your HDD crashes? Yeah, all your pohotos, docs, music lost. So, what is the keyword? Backup. Backup, but where? Is there any great solution? It has to be! Optical disks, such as CD, or DVD not are the best. Theese storages like the old floppy disks. All falis, it's just a question of time.
Well, in 2007 try to use the internet as a backup "device". There is a cool solution, I've found it today.
Let me introduce Mozy. This service is not a file sharing community, it's a backup tool. As a basic user they give you some free storage - 2 GigaBytes. When you refer friends, you'll give an extra +256MB storage for every referred user. Good news, Mozy is quite cheap. They provide you unlimited data storage just for $4.95/month. I think is really cheap, but I recommend a VERY high speed internet connection. Your upload line will burn! :)
So, how it works?
First, register. Try basic, or the unlimited, whatever. You'll have to download a client program (it is also available for Win and Mac, Linux is not supported yet), select the directories what you want to backup, and start the sync. The program uses data encryption, so don't worry about data-stealing, etc.
After, your files loaded, the client program keeps the content synced. For example, if you choosen your Pictures folder for backup, and you upload some new photos from your camera to your PC, the Mozy client will automatically upload the new stuff.
The backuped data can be restored from the web-interface, or by using the client program.
I think, for DSL users could be a good feature to limit the upload speed - the browsing won't slow, but the client do its job in the background.
I recommend you to use Mozy. Remember, prevention is better than cure.
