    It's a pain. Other than the crappy as hell Java (Yes, it's still a think) OSX client, they've been great for me. So much faster than the alternatives like Carbonite in my testing. Not sure what I'm going to do, I think I've got about 1.5TB backed up.

    Well, on the bright side you get your full subscription plus an extra 60 days free. Better still, you could upgrade to Small Business and get next year's subscription at 50% off!

    Then, of course, your costs will double from $60 a year to $120. Boo-hiss.

    I think I'm just going to stick a Pi with a 1TB drive in me mother's house, Syncthing to that, and cancel my subscription. Once I've checked that she's on an unlimited connection, of course.
