Hmmm well in *that* case, seems like your choices are: 1. pay for VPS 2. relax your constraint about 5 TB of data 3. build a server center from the ground up with reliable power (among other things).

Seems like an unresolvable conflict to me. -J On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 5:06 AM, Lester Caine <les...@lsces.co.uk> wrote: > Igor Galić wrote: > >> Then I have the machines set up to rsync regularly and also rsync to >>> another machine at my ISP.
