No additional space on Business Advanced
Dear community,
I'm here to advice that the support have been denying us additional space for two weeks, first telling us that there was a momentary problem, then that we had made a request before...
If you storage is based on Windows, and that machine has direct access to the drives...the best option is Backblaze really. When I posted in their forum about using their unlimited plan to backup 200TB, an emoyee responded and said that was fine, and to them 200TB was not very much data. They said their biggest unlimited user has over 2PB backed up, and they are OK with that. They fully acknowledged the fact that with offering unlimited, your gonna have people you do NOT make money on. Their thinking is that 2PB person will willingly recommend people over to BB. They said from the start, if they stick to unlimited, they have to be ready to handle us people who are in the top 1%. For, $10/mo I think it is now, you really can't beat that. However, your discs have to be local, and they don't support NAS or network shares.
I have Backblaze for my entire system but you can’t stream from them unless you pay for the B2B and it’s an arm and a leg. But I agree, it’s the best for unlimited storage.
While that's true, their new beta app for Windows now allows for direct file restores. No more **bleep** zip files which is a huge win.
