Yeah, exactly as detaro says.

I usually like to keep most of my stuff backed up and that's almost 1 TB of data which would be very expensive to keep in the cloud.

So what I did was build a very cheap server with a WD Red HDD that I use to backup my full drive every couple of months.

I know I can probably use vanilla rsync but I really don't have the time to set up everything up and make sure it works, so I thought rsync.net could be a potential solution/alternative to CrashPlan.

Thanks for the answers though!



Yeah, the thing is rsync.net is just vanilla rsync. Solves the proprietary format issue, but not the 'some assembly required' issue.
