Others tend to run higher-KineticD would cost $100 CrashPlan and Mozy, $120 and Carbonite would cost $165. That's comparable to what the $79.95 SOS Online Backup would cost for the same scenario. So for my typical scenario of three computers backing up 50GB of data, this would work out to $81 per year. There's no limit on the number of machines you use under one account. The Simply Backup plan costs just $2 a month, and includes 5GB, with each extra GB costing 15 cents. Most home users will be better served by a more straightforward online backup service like Carbonite 4.0 ($54.95/year, 3 stars), MozyHome 2.0 ($5.99/mo, 3 stars), or our Editors' Choice, SOS Online Backup Home Edition 4.7.4 ($79.99/year, 4.5 stars), paired with a standalone syncing service like DropBox or Windows Live Sync. The service is quite capable, but almost everything you'll want to do involves some extra, seemingly unnecessary complication. Jungle Disk doesn't set any limit on how many computers you use on your account, and it also acts as a folder syncing service like DropBox ($9.95/mo, 4 stars). Another difference is that storage fees are separate from the monthly service charge. First, you get to choose your online storage provider-Rackspace or Amazon S3. Jungle Disk, offspring of big-time Web host Rackspace, packages online backup differently than most providers do.
