It's been about 10 days now, and I like it a lot

It's been about 10 days since installing and it has been working perfectly so my experience has been excellent. 10 TB is a whole lot of space, much more that I imagined, so I'm nowhere close to filling it. I switched from Norton because the special price was too good to pass up and the regular 1-year price will still I think a good deal. The interface is self-explanatory for anyone with a bit of experience with Windows file management and some understanding of the Windows file system structure. I won't say it's idiot proof but it's close. The first backup was a slow, taking about 12 hours for 81,000 files with 190 GB but the scheduled daily incremental backups run very quickly (I change only a dozen or so files each day however). Sometime this week I'll backup my 2nd computer with about the same amount of data and will still not be even close to 10 TB so I'll maybe clone my entire computer too. In a few weeks I'll do a test restore and I'll be Very surprised if there are problems. I'll certainly post here if there are. All in all, I'm very pleased with iDrive Online Backup and recommend it.
