That IS noteworthy.

Since we are talking about cloud backup solutions. I just had an interesting experience with Crashplan that I will share. Crashplan offers a seed service, where you can request an external hard drive be sent to you, you put all of your data on it, and mail it back. It can be faster than waiting to upload everything. Additionally, if you need to recover, then can send you the hard drive with your data on it for fast recovery.

So, I received an email from Crashplan that my data was on a corrupted disk volume. They are working to recover it, but until then, they are backing up all of my data to another disk. In addition, they offered this seed service for free since their volume died. I have additional backups so I am not concerned regarding data loss or slow uploads, but its cool to have a slick method of seeding your data.

Thanks,
Eric



Anyone have experience with FreeNAS or Nas4Free?   Thoughts on those?
