Mozy hits 1.0, no more beta backups

Mozy We’ve talked about Mozy before. It’s a backup service that allows you to save your files to an offsite location. Using this software/service combo, you can keep your vital files saved to a place safe from disasters such as a fire in your home. Offsite backup is a part of any complete backup strategy (because all of you have that, right? right?).

Up until yesterday, the service was in beta, but no longer. It’s in final, supported form. If you’re interested in trying it, you get a free 2 GB of data space to back up to (more than enough to save most of your vital documents). Should you decide you like it, $4.95 per month will buy you unlimited back up space. I hope you have a net connection with fast upload should you choose to back up all your data this way.
