Hey,

So right now my backup needs are very simple (and I expect them to stay that way). It looks like this:

Asus UL20FT (Windows 8 Pro) laptop with 240GB Intel SSD
FreeNAS box with 2TB ZFS RAID1 (RSYNC copies data from my laptop to the NAS)
DropBox for commonly used files (documents)
50 down, 10 up connection

Currently I only have about 80GB of data (mostly pictures and music). While it's not a lot, it is important to me and it's important that the data is available in the event of disaster.

I think what I'd like to do is get setup with an online backup service that supports RSYNC from my NAS. What are the suggestions for this? I can't find much info online about RSYNC support.

I do worry about the financial viability/stability of some of the smaller cloud service providers and cost is certainly a consideration.

Thanks,

David
