I got a NAS for local backups and am considering Amazon Glacier for off-site archival. One of the cool things about a NAS is that you can run your own Dropbox-like service with BT Sync with unlimited storage capacity and bandwidth.
Amazon Glacier is cool, but with these end user services(Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud soon probably) now being so cheap there’s not much point in using Amazon Glacier I guess. Amazon Glaciers’s prices start at $0.01 per gigabyte per month which for 1tb would be $10.24. I guess Amazon Glacier won’t drop their prices, because they’re targeting a different market it seems.
I’ve always been messing with external hard drives for backups. A NAS would be nice for local redundancy. I think I’m just gonna trust my files are fairly safe at iCloud though, keep doing local backups on the stuff I really must not lose, and store all the stuff that isn’t important on iCloud only.
Would be cool if there’s some software that pull files from iCloud so that a NAS could always keep itself updated as a backup of what’s on iCloud(or other similar services).
