You close the app and it states it will close the app but actually puts it in the task tray. Then you go in the local client and it showes 70GB. The online client claimed 70GB was uploaded but the local client claimed 30GB. I'd left it running over night, with 200GB and it had only done about 30GB in 6hrs. Checked the Sonicwall and it was blocking it because it claimed its sending unencrypted traffic over SSL. Took the drive to work to try it and it refused to connect. I'm on Virgin and upload isn't too bad but to the iDrive server was slow. iDrive was one and their affiliate link meant it was only $7 for one year so thought I'd give it a try. Took a quick look at a youtube review of a few backup cloud storage. So what's the catch? What am I missing? Is there a hidden price hike coming? Are speeds to restore files painfully slow? Are they going to start throttling my uploads People who have had bad experiences with iDrive, what can you tell me?Ĭome here to rant. In just a few days it has backed up everything on both devices, compared to CrashPlan which takes months for a similar amount of data (and has stalled for the past month with little help from customer service in getting it unstuck). Then I saw iDrive had a pretty cheap first-year deal and reasonable prices thereafter, so I gave it a try. I considered Amazon Glacier and Backblaze B2, but with 6TB+ both were considerably more expensive than CrashPlan even for cold storage.
CARBONITE VS IDRIVE MAC
So I looked around for a service I could use for my Mac and my NAS. They don't have an app that runs on the NAS for their Small Business accounts. Plus, I now have a NAS that I didn't when I started with them, and in order for me to keep it backed up, CrashPlan requires it be mounted, which I don't always want to do. I've been a CrashPlan user for 10+ years, but I'm increasingly frustrated with very slow speeds.
