What happened to a young mans antibody test from March of 2020?

Need 2TB of cheap cloud storage for my Veritas System Recovery backup

I use Veritas System Recovery 18 to backup up the drives on my Win 10 system. I have incremental and full backup jobs for several drives that run at various times during the day. Right now I backup to an internal drive and to a usb attached sata drive. I would like to also backup up to an offsite cloud location. I looked at iDrive which has some really good prices but you must use their backup software. I can upgrade my Dropbox account but that is expensive for 2TB. The Veritas offsite copy can be a Folder, Network Path, FTP address, or an OpenStorage location.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion for a cheaper solution. I'm looking for something in the $60 to $70/year, if possible. Thanks.

 

Need 2TB of cheap cloud storage for my Veritas System Recovery backup

My issue now is finding a cloud storage service that offers the kind of performance that will work with the files sizes I'm dealing with. At this point I don't think it will be possible to find a cloud service that will work.

When I started this thread, I was looking for cloud storage to store my Veritas full and incremental image files, full backups which range from 53 gb to 300 gb for each drive and run weekly, and incremental backups which can be as much as a 2 - 4 gb for each drive daily. Based on the fastest service I can find so far my full backups would take 1.25 hrs, 5 hrs, 7 hrs, 2 hrs and 4.25 hours respectively to transfer to the cloud and as much as 45 mins for each incremental daily. Veritas currently performs the backup to an internal SATA drive and then copies the backup to an external USB attached SATA drive. My idea was to then have Veritas copy the backup file to a cloud service as part of the backup job.

A NAS drive would provide another layer of protection in addition to my internal SATA drive backups and my external USB attached SATA drive backups but it does not provide any protection in the case of a malicious attack like ransom ware, so I need to step back and rethink the situation.

 

error 1904 when trying to install Veritas system recovery on windows 10 ver 1809

Different major releases of Windows 10 have different compatibility with apps, so it's quite possible that Veritas need to update their product before it can run with Windows 10 version 1809.

You may need to get in contact with Veritas support to see if they are releasing an update for their products to work with the latest version of Windows.
