Been seeing a LOT of commercials for online backup and storage with a monthly fee. Sites like Mozy.com and others. They charge a fee for 2 Gigs and up.
Do NOT buy into this! It’s crap. Not only are you exposing your data to potential hacks, but a DVD holds 4.5 gigs (DVD9 holds twce that)! You can get a DVD writer for 40 or less. The discs cost about 39 cents per blank (DVD5). So for a 50 dollar investment, you can backup your own data privately via DVD burns, and end up holding 100 times more data than any pay site with no worry about external interference.
Don’t buy into to it! Get a DVD burner and some blanks! Keep your data at home!
