Re: Keep it!

Why are you backing up 15GB over the internet anyway?

Offsite Backups.
Incase my onsite backups get hosed/scratched/lost/whatever, I can just reinstall XP and download the images and go from there.

ALOT of expensive software and important data that I would rather not lose. For any reason.

Re: Keep it!

Yea you might want to look at a tape backup or perhaps a married server on you LAN that backs up you box's on a time.

But a house fire could take that out. using the net is a good idea but im sure your provider isn't too crazy about all that uploading.

1 edit		 Yes, but still... unless you're constantly deleting what you upload to your remote location, you should only have to backup new items when needed... not all of them all over again.

Of course, I got the impression from your post that it sounds like backing up 15GB is something you do quite frequently if you're complaining about the upload speed.
