Does it work well?
Does it take awhile?
Is it safe?
Would you recommend it?
I thank you.

Yes, I use it for daily incremental backups in addition to my external hard drive - just in case.
It is slow. It transfers at only about 1 MB/sec.
It is safe as far as anyone knows.
I recommend it.

Thanks, Bob. (Never could get my Maxtor to work again.)

It got a huge write-up in whichever newsmagazine I just got, Time or Newsweek.
I would go nuts with a server run by complete strangers, but then I am being backed up by complete strangers now, considering how the personnel at my job have changed.
I am scared to go look at my files & see if they're still there. I would be scared-er with a service, I think; I would think their glitch was my glitch, & maybe it would be.
How do you get Mozy to replace stuff they say was never there when they do lose it, which they, despite the writeups, will?
