Isnt something like Amazon S3 more reliable, if the data is critical.
Its auotmatic using shell scripts and cron jobs.
Cost for such data would come to around 15$/month if your total
storage online is around 60GB
Thats around 600rs/month or around 7200/year which is the cost of a
500GB HDD and iits very very reliable.
