Backup filehosts meeting these requirements

[SeeingMole]

This depends on what kind of files you have. If they're all your own unique files, then they may simply ban you because you are using excessive storage.

But if your files are from elsewhere, chances are that they're already shared by someone on their system so even if you also have them, it'll just point to the same file, thus you're not really using 20 TB for yourself.

Yes, all of those 10TB+ of files are my own unique files.

...then they may simply ban you because you are using excessive storage.

And to avoid this very situation, I included this requirement "-more than 10TB storage space, unlimited preferred" when I created this thread hoping to find out if there are any file hosting services besides rapidshare that don't ban you just because you upload xxTBs of files.

 

[ananisikim]

I prefer rapidshare, I got 17 tb there and will buy 2nd account cause I do not want to force attention on my account 1st.

 

[Denji]

As stated in my first post, I am already using rapidshare. However, additionally to rapidshare I'd like to use a different file hosting service to back up my files.

 

[SeeingMole]

Then as I said, your best alternative would be megashares and filefactory. I don't think both will ban even if you store huge amount of data as backup.
They've been around for years and have enough infrastructure to handle it.

Newer hosts usually won't tolerate such huge amount of data just sitting idle and not making money for them.

But then you think their speed is "slow". So if you have so many criteria to fulfill, looks like your only choice will be rapidshare...

Frankly I can't see the speed being of such major issue. So what if it takes days to transfer all the data. Once it's done it's done. It's not like you have loads of data daily to transfer or something...

Just check out the threads about filecloud.io here. Many of them are filled with negative feedback.

Edit: Btw, has anyone ever uploaded more than 10TB of (non-infringing) files to putlocker without getting your files/account deleted?

Edit2: Can I upload/download with 500Mbit/s+ to/from 1fichier.com/putlocker?

filecloud.io was previously ifile.it, a small-file host that doesnt really suitable with your needs of unlimited storage (>10TB).
Filefactory from what I have been using, is cheap company.. some files on certain server has technical problem & not accessible hence they asked the uploader to re-upload again. :facepalm:
Sorry mates, dont have any suggestion besides RS. :P

Megaup.me this file host has been around 8 to 10 months now great speeds. They also run a image and document host







If you need more info just pm me

 

[ninjawind]

maybe you could try sendspace for backup.

Hey, thanks for your advice, however it their service doesn't really seem reliable or reputable to me. But hey, if Megaup.me is still online in 2014, I'll pm you. ;P

maybe you could try sendspace for backup.

Just read through sendspace's TOS and found this passage:
5.5.1 Fair Use Policy
Although we offer unlimited uploading, Sendspace should not be used for file storage. We reserve the right to restrict or deny service to members who use a disproportionate amount of storage resources, to the detriment of other users.

We will only impose a limit on the use of Pro for personal downloading to prevent unusual use and abuse. If a customer regularly downloads in excess of normal levels of consumer consumption, for example, 250GB per month, we may do one or both of the following:
(a) ask you to moderate your use;
(b) if the customer does not modify their usage but continues to exceed the normal level, we may suspend or terminate the customer's account.

Edit: I totally forgot about bitshare:

-Unlimited storage time of inactive files
-10.000 GByte Available storage space

sure, 2GB file size limit sucks, but the rest sounds promising - can anyone using bitshare confirm these statements?

 

[Richard]

Bitshare upload speed is very very very slow for me, even on my french RDP, via FTP 100-900 KB/s, webupload is better sometimes, but still not good. So I recommend you to test upload speed yourself, maybe u get lucky with the speed. Otherwise bitshare is ok.

 

[Web-Man]

bitshare deleted my files even without share. Avoid!

 

[Denji]

Yeah, I heard the same about Bitshare from other people. :/ Anyway, thanks for replying.

 

[THE Bull]

Did you check FilePost? I think they suit your needs

 

[SeeingMole]

Bitshare will remove files if it hasn't been downloaded within 90 days, even for premium users.

I can confirm this. What they say on their pages that they keep files forever for premium users is a lie.

That's why I had to stop using them because eventually my files started to disappear.

The problem is how they "count" (or rather not count). I think it's 1 time for each IP in 24 hours or something.

If you have a set of rars, the lower number parts will usually get removed first because it hasn't counted the downloads eventually leaving you with incomplete set.

I believe bitshare cap their FTP upload speeds. You can only have max 3 connection at a time and the speed is capped at 300 KBytes/s. I've tried RDP from many locations both in US and EU and I get exactly same speed.

Note:
When I say "you" I DO NOT specifically mean "Denji", but to anyone who may read this...
I WAS AWARE since the beginning of your requirements and that you aren't gonna share your files. But it's not only you who read this and for other who may have different requirements it's useful info for them.

Me too. Filegag is the same thing :facepalm:

It does indeed look interesting. Has anyone here ever upload ~10TBs of files and if so, have you ever had any problems?

 

[SMX]

For backup puproses I use crashplan, it's far more comfortable than any filehost and you have no limits

 

[ChuckBartowski]

may i know how many TBs do u have on that site ?

 

[SMX]

I have a whole backup of all my computers and external storage there, in total about 8TB of storage in the CrashPlan+ Family package for 13.99 a month.

Just checked out CrashPlan. Seems to be one of the best online backup services out there. However,

in total about 8TB of storage in the CrashPlan+ Family package for 13.99 a month.

I wonder if you can upload that much and more with a normal CrashPlan+ as well (would go for CrashPlan Pro, but it's only available in the USA and Australia :/ ...). I mean sure it says "unlimited online storage", but many businesses out there promise the same as well. Unfortunately, online a few can keep it...

By the way, can you tell me if CrashPlan does meet this requirement:

-support a up/download speed of 500mbit/s, 1gbit/s preferred


On a different note, I would be grateful if I could more feedback on

-FilePost and
-FileFactory

@feedback on FileFactory so far:

Then as I said, your best alternative would be ... filefactory. I don't think [they] will ban even if you store huge amount of data as backup. They've been around for years and have enough infrastructure to handle it.

filefactory from what I have been using, is cheap company.. some files on certain server has technical problem & not accessible hence they asked the uploader to re-upload again.
