So I can basically upload to iDrive as fast as my connection will allow me. I can now backup my files and iDrive will max out my upload bandwidth. In terms of backup speeds, I’m actually glad to see that the issues I had last year SEEM to have been resolved. Which is a much better approach than Backblaze. With any larger files getting taken care of in its daily backup job you’ll need to configure.įor those backed up files, iDrive will store up to 30 previous versions of those files, rather than 30 DAYS of history. Backupsįor the actual backups, It does have continuous protection, though you do have to enable this manually after installing the client, and it still only works with files of up to 500mb in size. You’ll have to pay shipping fees outside of the US, but this does take care of the hardest part of these backup services. If you have a tonne of data to either backup or restore, then iDrive can ship a hard drive for you to backup to, and then send it back to them. You can use this on Mac, PC, iOS, and Android and it supports external drives as well as backups for some of the most popular NAS devices. Those prices are for one user but for unlimited computers, which is very good compared to others who limit you to a single machine. It’s almost too good to be true.Īfter the first year, you’ll pay $79.50 for 5TB or $99.50 for 10TB $7.95 for your first year for 5TB of storage. IDrive is the one that tops many of the online reviews, but does it deserve to be?įor pricing, iDrive is insanely cheap, because yes, I did find a discount - and it’s damn impressive. So with that said, let’s start off with iDrive. I’ll link any discounts I find at the bottom of this post. Like last year's version, I’m going to sign up with an account for all of the top names - iDrive, Backblaze, Carbonite, and a new one for this year's video, Acronis.įor each of those, I’m going to cover Price, User Experience, Backup, Restoration, and of course Security. How much money can they make on affiliate links? One of the reasons I wanted to do this post, is because MOST online ‘Best Cloud Backup’ reviews I’ve seen so far, are only really interested in one thing. Which they’re not, they literally state it in their T&C’s. Most of my friends believe that Google Drive and OneDrive ARE a backup. Today we are going to answer that question. What is the Best Cloud Backup service for Mac?
