Hi all.

Annoyingly, my current provider's financial backers have decided that
they're not going to continue investing in it and it is currently
scheduled to close at the end of the month. So I am looking for an
alternative.

* Needs to work for Linux systems and file systems.

* I'd prefer certainty over annual cost to Amazon's 'so much per Gb, so
much per etc' model.

* It needs to be reasonably priced for about 1Tb of data.

* It'd be lovely if it worked with rsync or csync.

* It needs to be around this time next year, and the year after that etc.

Any recommendations?

Ian

What do you currently pay?

What level of resilience do you need?

Cheers,
Andy
