  • Nice find, signed up for family and it's valid for a year :)

    I ordered the individual and it's maxing out my home ISP upload now. :D

    Thanks, note that on the page it will say 98% discount but it is actually 100% discount when you click add to cart.

    Also, they need a credit card, so make sure you remember to cancel before the end of next year!

    Or keep backing up all your data and versions for ~$4.16/month. ;)

  • Thanks for the find!!

    It gave me option at the end "Automatically renew my subscription " which you can untick

    I used Google Wallet to do the purchase...so hopefully I will remember to cancel

    Also don't forget to enable encryption and use your own encryption key. ;)

  • Thanks :)

    Thanks!
    Too bad this isn't for existing customers (hoped to prolong my account with them by a year), well "bought" a new subscription just in case anyway.

  • Thanks :) :)

  • If you miss it there is still another way to get a free year: http://crashplan.com/blog/consumer_backup/carboniteswitch

    Needs US IP, but I am sure all the people here knows how to use VPN :)

    Good point. I got the one. :)

  • Not even loading anymore... getting "Please check back in a few minutes...
    CrashPlan.com is temporarily unavailable due to maintenance. Our apologies for this inconvenience.
    "

  • Yep, it seems they didn't have the proper planning and crashed ;-)

  • KuJoeKuJoe Member, Host Rep

    At least they kept backups. :X

  • Crashplan crashed a plan, how many plans can you crash in a plan on a crashplan?

  • They are back up ;) .. thanks for the find , signed up for one :)

    I was not lucky to get 100% off but still managed to get 98% off on Family Unlimited plan, thanks for posting @zhuanyi

  • What happens when you have to pay ~$100 to renew :(

  • Too bad i dont have a credit card...

    The same thing when renewal time comes for anything, you either renew or cancel.

    Thank you!

    Does crashplan work on a leb?

    EDIT:
    It doesn't.

    Requirements:
    2.6.13 Series Kernel or greater
    1GHZ+ x86-64 CPU, 1GB+ memory, 250MB+ free drive space, Oracle (Sun) Java version 1.6+,
    Glibc 2.4+, GTK, Xorg

  • @RoboCot said: Does crashplan work on a leb?

    Yes, I have an instance running on 512MB, 256 might also work but is not stable though.

    And?

    You can satisfy every requirement out of these on a LEB.

    And there are howtos to run CrashPlan even without Xorg. http://www.google.com/search?q=crashplan+headless&sugexp=chrome,mod=0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

  • guys any other offer like this? i have crashplan already, if can get offer like this from any other then nice :)

    It's one of the few that actually runs on linux without a desktop GUI.
