Acronis, which also markets Acronis Cyber Protect, one of the best online backup for business options, has a global network of servers. There are three data centers in the U. The result was a backup that took less than 15 minutes. That means we could have potentially backed up 4GB an hour, which works out to around GB per day. Acronis Cyber Protect is expensive, even for a business backup solution, but Cyber Protect Home Office is reasonably priced.
Another route you could take is finding an IaaS provider and incorporate that into your backup plan. IaaS stands refers to infrastructure as a service and can be used for anything from building an app, to cloud storage, to backing up hard drives.
On top of that, you often get to choose your server location, so you can get one close to you. Leading the way, Amazon S3 has 53 availability zones in 18 geographic regions. The problem is that you need a way to do that. For backup, there are a few free options like Duplicati read our Duplicati review and Arq read our Arq review that tend to be pretty good. You can read our CloudBerry Backup review for more information. However, as you can read about in our SOS Online Backup review , there are other reasons to look elsewhere, like the price tag.
For low cost backup with decent speeds, we can recommend Backblaze. Plus, Backblaze is by far the easiest backup service to use. See our Backblaze review for more details. Some online backup businesses overcome speed issues with a reasonable band aid: courier service. Unfortunately, in most cases, courier service costs money and, rather pointlessly for the purpose of this article, are only available for data recovery. Of all the online backup services, IDrive has by far the best courier service, which is called IDrive Express.
What makes IDrive Express great is that its available for both backup and recovery. Also, its free. Under the terms of the program, IDrive will send you a 3TB external drive. You load the data on it, send it back, and IDrive technicians will transfer your data to a server.
But if the time invested in uploading is too consuming, we would suggest you try another method than the cloud storage. Enter the file size that you need to upload. It can be a single file size or the entire folder that you would like to upload to the cloud storage server. Enter your upload speed. BackBlaze — Unlimited Storage.

If so please give us some more information so we can try and help - please remember we cannot see over your shoulder so be as descriptive as possible! Dropbox is a real life local folder that resides on your machine. That means it takes up space. Once things are uploaded you can remove them locally via Selective Sync but they MUST go in the Dropbox folder first if they are large.
Hence the files would need to go from Hard-drive direct to dropbox. Once in dropbox I can select sync the files I want copied on my mac. The key thing to remember is that Dropbox isnt a backup tool. Its a syncing tool. Its designed to have everything local on all devices. I know, I will continue using it for that, but I thought I could back-up large files of data from may external drive direct to dropbox.
The way we work is changing. Took a long time, For me was probably about an 45 minutes to an hour. Not even sure it was necessary lol. Have you seen an sort of a plus-side usage improvement for having done so? My GB Rolling Cache is wondering! I dunno It came in hand for that, to date! May I enquire why do you create such a massive cache? I don't feel like running numbers here, but it would take forever to fill that cache by just flying around. And if you have connection speed sufficient to fill that enormous cache, then why do you even need cache in the first place?
Creating the cache, either rolling or manual takes a really long time even on an SSD. I made a GB one for my manual cache, but decide at this point it isn't worth it, because with a cache this large, the more regions you create, the more it slows down your entire system to the point where everything becomes unresponsive.
I just deleted my manual cache and just made a 64GB rolling cache for the time being until Asobo can improve and work out all the kinks with the manual cache feature. That is about what I had in ortho4xp files amd i don't have anything else to do with that space.
