• Cryptomator Volume can't be accessed by Arq Backup

  I use Arq 7 on macOS to backup to various network, cloud and physical drives. This is able to mount network volumes both as backup sources and destinations, in addition to connected physical drives (internal or external). Source: 11 months ago

• Best cloud storage option for macOS in 2023

  Wasabi.com is an Amazon S3-alike that I use with the arqbackup.com client for remotely backing up my machines. Wasabi offers a nice desktop client for what looks like Dropbox-like capability. Haven't dug into that yet either. Source: over 1 year ago

• Repeatedly having to deactivate / reactivate licence

  The only way to resolve is to log in to Arq account at arqbackup.com , deactivate the licence, then go back into the Arq app and rekey the (same) licence. The app starts to work immediately fine. Source: over 1 year ago

• Storj or filebase

  I use Storj (with Arq) and it works flawlessly. It's not my primary repository (still testing it) but it's one of a few I use to backup to. Speeds are fast, the dashboard is intuitive, and costs are pretty cheap. Nothing to complain about, but I'm only backing up ~500G right now. Source: over 1 year ago

• Looking for people that are USING storj

  I use Storj and host a node (I get it, might not be what you're after). If it helps, my node is in a datacenter, not in my home/SOHO. I'm using Arq to send data up to Storj on my / other's machines. Always around to help, if needed. Source: almost 2 years ago

• idrive security concern

  I'm just testing idrive service and maybe I'm missing the point but it looks that anyone who gain access to idrive.com is able to get any file from any local drive, I mean any file. And even there're no notification that I should enable 2FA. And this mean that some employees could get access as well. Source: 6 months ago

• Site unreachable via Starlink

  With ZERO changes made to any of my devices, I am now able to reach idrive.com from all my devices. Source: 12 months ago

• Best Cloud Storage for Photos

  Hello, I'm interested in what cloud service you use to store your photos and if you only use one cloud service or several, "just in case" . I think it would be interesting to analyze from our own experience relation to price/quality/security ratio/possibility to access thumbnail photos and also to give upload access for a directory. In google searches I found that for those who don't want to make a business out... Source: about 1 year ago

• Looking for a competitively priced service to host files for my study group

  If you're really just wanting to store the files, then iDrive is pretty hard to beat on pricing - they've been running a 90% off promo on their 5 TB plan for a while now to where you can get a whole year of it for only $7.95 (total, not per month). Even on non-promo they're near impossible to beat on pricing. Source: over 1 year ago

• iDrive doesn't delete remote backup files?

  Is there a way to set it up so that I can sync my folder to reflect all local changes? I only need it one way. I don't access these files from other devices, nor do I go to idrive.com directly, so I will never need server->local syncing. Source: over 1 year ago
