*Backblaze* is a cross platform online backup service. It's easy to use and
offers unlimited storage space. BackBlaze's main market are those people that
continually forget to backup their data and want an automated solution. It's
free for the first 15 days but then costs $5 a month after that. The setup
process is very straightforward. BackBlaze backs up all data and simply
requires an email address and password to setup your account. Data is then
automatically backed-up and back ups can also pick-up from where they left
off if the user shuts down or interrupts it in anyway. BackBlaze claims to
offer military grade encryption both sent and stored data. In addition, you
can add your own encryption key if you choose. When you want to retrieve
data, you can do so picking out specific files or download everything at
once. If you're in the US, you can even order a DVD or USB copy sent to you.
Most recently, BackBlaze has been updated with Firewire drive support
although there's no such aupport for Thunderbolt connections yet. *BackBlaze
is an interesting alternative to services such as DropBox and CrashPlan
although the mandatory subscription will put many off.*Download *BackBlaze
