Remote Backup solutions

Can anybody point me towards a solid remote backup provider? I've been searching for the past hour and haven't found much in terms of useful information. Most of the company websites I ended up on all say "Call for more information", which is useless to me.


What I need is a company that can give me a few hundred GB of storage space that I can connect to via FTP on a daily/weekly basis.

Please don't recommend any company that has 'backup software'. I just want a remote file system I can connect to and upload files to.

    I think Amazon S3 would work very well for your requirements.

    "Amazon S3 provides a simple web services interface that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web."

    Check it out here --> aws.amazon.com/s3

        Not sure if you've thought about this, but it might take 2 months to upload a few hundred GB unless you have access to something fast upload speeds.

        Have you considered getting a backup solution on your own network that you can then access via FTP?
