Carbonite will probably do the same thing sometime soon. Not sure how slow crashplan is but carbonite only gives you 10mpbs on the upload and download, which is about 11 days per TB at optimal speed.I'll probably either switch to a small business plan or switch to Carbonite. I can't handle uploading everything again. It took months last time to fully upload all my files at the slow transfer speed offered by Crashplan.

BackBlaze with unlimited looks like an option, but since my subscription renewed less than a month a go then I have to wait 12 months before I switch or lose my years subscription as they wont refund.
Glad I got tape. Slow on seeks, but I'm getting 140MB/s constant write/read (LTO-6, 7 reaches 300) and ebay has some good deals every now and then. Had to set up RAID0 on 4 15k drives and FastCopy 4GB RAM cache just to keep the tape from slowing down. SSDs would help, but too expensive...
I'm not sure what is worse: slow and controlled, or too fast
That's what I do. When Amazon stopped the ACD unlimited plan, I decided that online cloud backups will never provide long term service. So I bit the bullet and put in a little Synology DS1817+ at my work. Plenty of room for my tier 1&2 data secondary backups, and as fast as I can upload.
