Synology NAS cloud backup / offsite backup / whatever...

It's a nice service but not the best price. $5/mo for 50GB.

Just get an unlimited CrashPlan account for $4/mo which you can install to run right on a Synoloy NAS.

Back when I had a Synology NAS I signed up for an account and had 6TB backed up from the NAS to CrashPlan.
 
Curious - how long did it take to back up that 6TB, and did you ever have to download it ?

Every one of the all-you-can-eat providers I have dealt with have either severely throttled me in both directions or have been very unwieldy to do a full restore of any meaningful amount of data. Or both.

FWIW, I am not that price sensitive for this kind of thing (business expense) and it was this:

ssh user@rsync.net "git clone git://example.com/myrepo.git local_copy"

that excited me ... the ability to just manipulate the account with plain old ssh and unix commands and not touch a GUI.
 
Took about 4 months to get up the initial 6TB.

My upload speed is 5Mbit so that is what my upload speed was limited by. I have downloaded various files from it before. Never the whole thing yet and I get more than 20mbit down from it when I try to restore.

I now currently have 12.3TB stored on their servers. 5Mbit upload allows me to sync up about 50GB per day which is certainly greater than the amount of which my data changes per day.
