[QUOTE="mikeh32217, post: 345346, member: 7081"] The problem I have with set and forget is the strain it puts on your system; when does actual transfer take place, your computer has to be up during that time, is there interruption in the sites service, how long will the service be offered, if you don't pay will you lose data, is data secure. I guess I just prefer to have control over my data, I've been programming for many years and plugging the external drive in once a month and backing up is not a problem with me. Plus I use Acronis and impact is minimal for me and when I rebuilt my system I went from 4 core to 8 core, 3GHz to 4GHz and memory from 8GB to 16GB so there's not much that can slow me down. :) [/QUOTE]
