I was sort of waiting for this one. Very good deal.
For the next three days only, you can get a whole year of unlimited backup with Backblaze for only $25 (50% off!)
This is probably the cheapest cloud service you can find in the market today. The only problem is that it is a cloud syncing service so you cannot use it to store data that you can later remove from your computer.

Good article. Worth reading. They compare the reliability of all the HDD's they use.

I still cannot believe they use self created pods for storage instead of a proper cloud backend like Amazon s3.

the old segates lasted easily for 7-10 yrs. i still have a old one running. the life of the new hdd's is appalling !

Right. I should still have my first 1.2GB HDD that I bought in 1997. I would not be shocked if it works 😀
