What?
NAT vs dedicated IP
This.
One day I'll have to stop by and check you out. I'm over here in West Palm Beach!
I bought a dell r610 for $290, dual x5650, 32gb ram, 500gb ssd for my home server last year.
It just works-stable as hell. No monthly fees to pay for. So happy. But for a budget minded minimum backup, this solution could work.
Always have off-site backups, local backups are nice but if your data is important have multiple backups in geographically diverse locations across different hardware/software. I have a few NASes locally, but for every local backup I have of my data I make sure to back the same data up in at least 4 off-site locations in different countries just to be safe.
??? Isn’t the service oriented towards people who want to store backups of VPSes, etc.?
It's for all types, which is why we offer various services. For example, my dad and I both use the FTP/rsync service for automated backups of our home NASes (Synology).
Thumbs up for offering a cheap scp/rsync plan, thanks @KuJoe!
Ah, completed missed this :P
Can this be used to backup my cPanel account on shared host?
This is like any NAT VPS? -> "Budget Backup VPSs Starting" ... Really good price
To save people hunting around, the interesting plan for storage junkies is this one:
https://securedragon.net/clients/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=0
1000GB, unlimited gbit xfer, ftp/scp/rsync, raid-5, $12.50/month.
Thanks for clarifying! Will definitely pick one up to test
Where is add to card order link?
I think you just click continue.
Yes it can. You can backup your cPanel account using FTP (faster, but insecure) or SCP (slower, but more secure).
But... but you can get an ARM server with 4x storage for less ?
/s
Oh man, I've been wanting to setup a few hundred TB of ARM powered storage for a long time... I love my ARM CPUs so much!
It just works-stable as hell. No monthly fees to pay for.
about 90% sure that costs more in power p/month alone to run 24x7 than this offer
Assuming $0.12/kWh, and the R610 using 150 watts idle, it will consume $13.39 a month of electricity, or slightly more than the 1TB Backup Account.
Awesome! Just picked one of the $7.50/year accts and logged in via SFTP, works great! It's perfect to rsync my website backups to, thanks @KuJoe
If you want a server for a pure back solution, this offer looks good.
But I do a lot more things on my r610 now with additional drives being used as backups, VMs, storage servers. The electricity has been added for about $15 monthly.
The server initially came with 2X5680s which caused fan being too loud. I sold them for $100 in ebay and bought 2X5650s for $48 and installed and I can even sleep by it. The two problems with r610 are I cannot install 3.5 drive in it and it cannot recognize sata with over 2 tb per bay (it can SAS but it is more expensive). I am still pretty happy and playing with it everyday. :-)
Sounds like you have a perc6i controller? If you swapped in a H200 (non-raid, about $25?) or H700 (raid, $40?) you could use larger disks. Just keep in mind that you need a H700i (internal) to use in the internal storage PCI port (ie, the that isnt exposed at the rear of the server).
Sorry. duplicated posts.....

I am using h700 but the manual says it supports >2tb on SAS only (I tried a 5 tb sata but only 2 tb was recognized on h700)
I might have to update the firmware to see if that could do the trick.
duplicated posts. Sorry.
Just updated the firmware. Now I see 4.6 tb instead of 2 tb.
