Eric - The cloud backup services sound like a great deal, but unless you have an extremely fast internet connection they aren't very practical. Your initial upload of a terrabyte of data could take weeks. The limitation is usually the upload speed provided by your ISP. The upload speed is usually a fraction of the the advertised download speed.
