I mentioned Cyberduck already. It has a setting to throttle the
data rate.
I missed that one, Tom. Ill look into it.
I checked out S3 as db suggested but it would be around $75/MONTH for
me to store all my photos, music,videos and some other misc data.
That's a lot per year for just a
But their vault is thru S3 and it
would cost me $99/month for less data than if I went directly thru S3.
An external drive with that much storage costs under $150 and affords a
much better data transfer rate. I have been doing this for many years,
rotating three drives between office and
Maybe you can make Mozy work for you. Once it's all backed up
won't your additions and changes be minimal? A total restore would
take a long time too but would be do-able if you didn't mind waiting.
The saying: Time is money applies here I guess...
I suppose that's true but I'm afraid
Glad to help.
I suspect you may end up with S3/ Jungle disk...
Keep us posted...

Also the Mac version doesn't have a place where you can adjust the
speed of the upload to lessen the pressure on the computer resources
so I'm stuck with the way they have it set. I've emailed their tech
support (3 days ago) but have gotten no response.
I'm going to check out the links you

Mozy Home would not be the best solution for that
amount... it is oriented for avg. people's document
storage. Not sure Mozy Pro would be better either.
I'm not looking for a back-p solution but a sharing
solution so she can share her client
That may be easier to do with a solution like Logmein. But she should
still have all those files backed up daily.

Does your backup need to be online (i.e. over the Internet)? It
sounds
like you might be better served by using an external (USB,
Firewire, or
eSATA) hard-disk. Get a 500GB unit (or more, prices are coming
down, and
your data will only increase over time). Actually, get two. Then,

For those avg. amounts Mozy does take a day to do the initial backup (at
a 2gb to 9gb / day
For your wife, I would recommend Mozy Home. It's transparent with a
decent user interface, it's free up to a certain size, cheap after
that, you can have a private key or one that can be recovered from
Mozy.You just can't do filesharing... only backup and restore.
