New For Macs: Back It Up With Mozy

May 21, 2007 By: Leslie Poston Category: Apple TV, iMac, iTunes, Mac Mini, MacBook, Software

Online data backup services for Macs have been scarce these last few years (ok, ever), but Mozy heard the call and came to the rescue (I realize .Mac and iDisk do this. for those of us with boucoups information for clients, an advanced internet use capability and a serious iTunes addiction, .Mac and iDisk don’t offer enough security or space).

Mozy is offering 2GB of storage free, and unlimited for $5 a month. That is a bargain! With the sheer outrageous volume of crap I have on my MacBook and iMac, “unlimited” is the necessity I’ve been waiting for. I’ll be trying this out this weekend, and letting you all know if I run into any problems. If you don’t here from me, I’m just reveling in the linky love and expansive space of Mozy’s cozy backup service.

Get your Mozy on here.

    FINALLY. I filled my entire iDisk within two months of owning my mac. I got a .Mac account, and a LaCie disk to help wth storage, but I am still lacking the UNLIMITED space I so need and want. Thank you!

    The first time you back up it takes a LONG LONG LONG time. A whole weekend to do my entire computer. but I am sure it will get faster once it is only updates and not the initial back up. It’s easy to use.

    [...] post could be titled “Mozy, Revisited”, since it is an indirect follow up to my original post on Mozy. I did download, pay for and try Mozy, and I have found it to be a truly sub-par service. The [...]
