I have been looking at using an online backup company for my home pc, having already had a laptop and external HDD stolen and lost a whole heap of music downloads (luckily the photos were backed up), I guessed it was about time I did some proper backups on my home kit.

I've been looking at http://www.onlinedatastore.co.uk and they seem to offer a pretty comprehensive and expandable service at a reasonable price. Has anyone had any experience with this company (good or bad) or is there another service that you use and could recommend? Likewise any that are to be avoided.
 
I'm sure I asked this same question somewhere, can't for the life of me find it though.

My only concern was that once you start using a service you are commited to paying for it indefinately, as they have your backups.

It's only a backup though not an online datastore. There's nothing to stop you moving to another (cheaper) system and using them instead.

I looked at the other thread and Mozy seems like one to look at.
 
Hmmmm, I've spoken to Mozy and they want £4.99 per computer ... so 3 laptops and a PC makes it an expensive job, plus they won't cover my Windows Home Server, that needs a pro licence and that's £6.99 + 50p per Gig per month.

I guess they won't be getting my business.
