ReadyNAS Vault : great but overpriced!
Hi! Just saw the ReadyNAS Vault announcement : great news! Something I definitely need to really secure my data as my PC backups are, indeed, copied on my ReadyNAS Duo but still in the same locatio...
I agree. I saw the note today -- but when I saw how small "home" was (for $6/mo - or $72/year), I was shocked.
$72/year for 5GB of backup? That is about 1 DVD ($0.19). Add postage to mail my backup anywhere (in US) and we have a grand total of $0.61 to back up almost 5GB.
Repeat for 12 months (1 backup per month!) and we're still talking about $7 / year
For one year, $72, I could almost buy a 1TB hard drive, mail it to my parents, and incrementally back up to them over the internet -- and have a lot more than 5GB.
