Preserving your precious memories
by making them digital is a great first step, BUT...

...but to completely protect your memories from potential loss, you need to maintain a backup copy of your videos, photos, music, documents, etc... AND that backup copy needs to be "off-site" (ie, not in the same home/office as the original). This is easy-to-say, but often very inconvenient to put into practice - especially if you're constantly adding new family photos all the time. Don't risk losing your family memories by keeping them all on a single computer hard drive!
- What if your computer crashes?
- What if your computer gets stolen?
- Why hassle with backup software?
- What if there's a disaster, are all your memories on one computer?

I have an external hard drive already, isn't that good enough?
Not really. While backing up your priceless photos and videos on an external hard drive is a step in the right direction, there are many scenarios in which it is NOT good enough. How often do you backup to the hard drive? Are your computer and the external hard drive always in the same location? Especially when you consider how affordable this solution is, isn't the piece-of-mind really worth it? Try it free today!
I save photos to a storage/archive device monthly, then store the device in a safe-deposit box.
That certainly will do the trick, but how often do you update or create documents, or add new photos to your computer? BackBlaze will upload the data continuously in the background as you work on your computer, so there is no need for you to manually update your backup... and there's certainly no need to drive to the local bank branch to access the safe-deposit box. Your time is valuable - don't waste it! Try it free today!
I already use a similar service. What makes BackBlaze different?
Not all online backup services are created equal (we know, we've done our homework)! There are several things that make BackBlaze special in our opinion. First, BackBlaze is very simple to install and use. In fact, once it's install and configured you will almost never know it's there! Second, BackBlaze will not only protect your computer's hard drive, but also any connected external hard drives! Most similar services will only protect a few key directories on your computer's hard drive. Third, BackBlaze lets you have UNLIMITED STORAGE, and that makes it extremely affordable!! Try it free today!
Will this work with a PC (Windows) or a Mac?
Yes! BackBlaze supports a variety of Windows and Mac computers. You can even have multiple computers protected by the same account. Try it free today!
