Hi all,
Just thought I'd pass this along. If you use Jungledisk for online
backup with the Amazon S3 storage service, you should check your bill
for extra unusual data OUT transfer charges. JD moved some equipment
out from an S3 data center and into their own data center. In so doing,
they inadvertently made it so JD customers using Amazon S3 for storage
started incurring extreme data out transfer charges. My total backup
bill for several computers went from < $ 15 to > $ 65 in March. They're
working on the problem, but I've had to suspend my online backups until
they figure out what they're doing about it. If you're in this
situation, you should raise a trouble ticket with Jungledisk. If so,
encourage them to set up a refund so you can get your lost money back.
Sincerely,
Ron
