Cloud Backup - Really Slow
I've been trying to use a cloud backup service, Backblaze, to back up my home computer. What a disappointment. There are 750GB of data to back up. Backblaze has been uploading files for 7 days. There is still 524GB left to go. My free trial ends in 3 days.
I'm not sure if this is taking forever because the upload speed on my Comcast internet is only 5 Mbps (says Speedtest) or because Backblaze might throttle uploads. Not sure.
Anyone successfully using cloud backup for large-ish amounts of data?.
I religiously backup to external hard drives, but wanted a cloud backup in case my house burns down or gets burgled.
