Anyone else tried Bitcasa? I've got a few tb with them and always adding more, 15MB/s upload speed (~1tb a day upload speed), and only $10 a month, accept paypal and add a virtual drive to your system where you can search for files that need re-upping quickly and easily.
There's also another one called Zoolz, but I haven't personally used it, same principal

lots of hosts say no limits for usage but that changes when you start use them. some expire files and pretend they were reported, i lost many private files like this.

None of the above.
Build your own, in the end it will save you much misery and money. Look for a dirt cheap dedicated server and customize it with gigabit internet and additional 3TB or 4TB hard drives. Then use it to transfer your data to/from as well as store.
Also, any backup host that offers "Unlimited Storage" should be avoided at all costs. There is a 100% track record of these backup services either going out of business or quickly changing their pricing structures within a few months of offering such unlimited services.
When I hear "unlimited storage" I get the same feeling that I do when I hear "100% uptime guaranteed", or "Unmetered VPS Gigabit NIC". All I have to say to either of these claims is: bullshit, you aren't worthy of my business.

Hello guys!
Now i'm using mega.co.nz for a few months and i have no problem.
BUT for precaution i want to use another filehosting as backup. I have a few questions:
1) 1fichier delete your files if you are not premium?
2) Wich is hotfile's upload speed for premium users? I tested it as free user and get only 500 kb/s.

1. 1fichier do not delete if you have Premum.
2. Upload speed should never be limited no matter host or usertype.
