A> A> Atreyu i'm a big backup nut and it's saved me tons of times. I've also seen hundreds of stupid sysops lose everything and cry about it when they didn't back up. i prefer to download to home, but i did checkout ovh's backup system and i did upload vm backups a few times to it. i don't intend to keep using it because it's a pain in the ass to use their login and their server and there's restrictions of where i can upload to and also the space is limited. it's not desirable but it's better than nothing. i suppose if my server blew up again it would come in handy to restore from their backup instead of me uploading my backups for 2-3 days on my current connection that has a poor upload speed. I've used a lot of providers over the years, sometimes 3 at a time or more when i was into experimenting and torrent sites. ovh hasn't really let me down. ....
