I’ve been backing up to a dedicated hard disk within the same server for all my backups in case my disks fail. And as I run more and more services, the concern of disks failures grow bigger.

I’m looking for a cheapish off-site backup solution and I’m just curious what everyone does for their 3-2-1 backup solutions.

    I got it when they had a deal about a month ago so it’s only $65.09/month (Canadian) on a 12 month commitment.

    I feel it’s just the right price given the specs. Xeon-E 2274G, 32GB RAM, 2 x 480GB SSD, 2 X 8TB HDD, and unmetered 500/500 connection.

    I’ve currently got 6 VMs on it and the Load Average is 0.38, 0.36, 0.36 and the CPU stays under 20%. I have plans to add 3 or 4 more. The VMs are mostly for family members websites/blogs, super low traffic.

      Cool, that’s a beefy machine. Way more expensive than I would be comfortable with but you do get lots of power.
