BACKBLAZE provides a true online backup to its users. Crashing of a hard disk came into being with the existence of computers and since then we all need a proper backup to cope with it. It really feels bad when all of a sudden our valuable data is attacked by a vigorous virus or when our screen turns black.

Most of us feared our data to be totally lost in such situations, but now with the help of Backblaze,you can save your important data online through an Internet browser.

The service is unique yet very simple and there is no need of going through the cumbersome time consuming registration steps. You are done with three easy steps. Files are stored on Backblaze data centre with double encryption technique that ensures reliability and security. Users can restore their recovered files online or through a USB disk or a DVD sent to them.backblaze page

The site offers a 15 day trial service, but the unlimited data storage and bandwidth can be accessed for $5. The online data back up solution is worthwhile as it also facilitates users to access the recovered files from anywhere.

Currently the service is in private beta phase and users can avail this opportunity to be among the 500 invitees. If you miss out to be one of those lucky fellows, well than you will have to wait till the full fledge launch of the service.

According to TechCrunch, the service may take weeks to backup the entire hard disk content, that surely annoys users and is a great flaw.

Over all the service provides an ease to the daily PC users with valuable data, but some well known competitors like mozy, sugarsync and carbonite are already fighting for their share of this market segment.
