I first discovered and wrote about Mozy back in December. Since then, I’ve been helping with their beta testing, providing the company with feedback along the way as they’ve improved their most excellent (and FREE!) online backup product. It really does kick some ass — after the initial setup, you can just forget about it, knowing that your most important data are being automatically and securely backed up whenever your computer is idle — and I’d encourage you to sign up for a free account (in exchange for the occasional email ad directly from them) or a paid account (only 20 bucks a year and no ads). If you sign up via this link (or any I’ve included herein), I’ll get a bonus +1GB of storage for every 4 referrals. And once you’ve signed up for your free 2GB account, you can refer people to increase the size of your account, too.
Here’s some more encouragement from the guys at Mozy:
Hey, I’m not worried about hard drive crashes or losing data accidentally because I’m using Mozy.com to backup my data. It’s super simple to use, and it’s automatic and free.
Just click on this link to sign up. If you have any trouble setting it up, I can help you out, and if you think you are too busy to get your backup solution in place, don’t come whining to me when your computer crashes. I’m just trying to help you out here. Really.
