Re: "Solid State" media failures
Well, I have 80Mbit downstream, but I don't even have to use that.
The company will send you a 4TB HDD for ~$200 but if you send that back to them, the service is free of charge - you effectively just pay the postage to send it back and they give you a full refund, or you can decide to keep the drive for the $200 deposit. So maybe $20 to get the data back in a few days.
Other companies have similar policies, but Backblaze seemed to be one of the most attractive in terms of customer service and software. 100TB is a huge amount of data, I am no where near that level! FWIW they are unlimited in terms of backup (I am guessing that MOST of their customers don't use 100TB of space) but obviously if you had to recover the full 100TB that would take some time and a lot of drives.
