![]() However quick google search also shows that you need to be careful what you backup to their cloud. ![]() they scan filenames for copyright violations. So by default, personal account data send and stored on thier servers is NOT encrypted. Only Business accounts are apparently.įor now, I use my Synology stations as my primary clouds and I have about 200GB on Glacier (which apparently this is what Zoolz uses) for an additional redundancy for irreplaceable personal files, and the price is still quite reasonable (less than $40/yr even with a few restores). I still trust amazon over any smaller 3rd party company which could disappear at any time.

Well, for my current needs, Glacier is fine and easily integrates into my Synology NAS (backblaze is a pain for that - I don't want to start playing with iSCSI on another PC, etc. Something about BackBlaze's skewed HD statistics also doesn't sit well with me. Using Desktop class drives instead of Enterprise class drives and then running some dumb correlation to prove "to themselves" that it makes no difference, and temperatures play no factor either is just nuts. And in a datacenter environment, even drive orientation makes a difference (horizontal vs vertical ) etc. I go through over 3000+ drives/year and I can tell you from experience that Enterprise vs Desktop drives makes a huge difference in long run, and they run a lot cooler. Each vendor has their good models/batches and their junk models and batches. Hitachi in the last years seems to be the most reliable (not to say that will never change - many of use rememeber the Deathstar days), but Seagate and WD are pretty much at par. For every Seagate dead drive, I have a dead WD drive. I send back quite a few RMA to both companies, and can't say one is worse than the other.
