pls suggest online backup with mobile access
Hi, I would like to backup all my files, so far I have around 200GB and I wonder, where to put it? External HDD is good option, but I would prefer online storage.

I have found out, that Mozy offers unlimited file size and storage capacity for 4.95$ . Do you think, it is reliable or is there something better? I would expect to access files on my iPhone also.

I personally feel mozi's interface is a bit complex to understand.

You should use both an external drive and online storage as backup solutions. They're intended to compliment, not replace each other. Requiring iPhone access is certainly a limiting factor. I'm not aware of any online service that provides access via the iPhone. You'll want to choose an online backup company very carefully. Some have gone out of business in this tough economy taking users' data down with them.

Why do you think "iPhone access is certainly a limiting factor"? It would be good if I have a solution to access my online files on the iphone device.

With that as a requirement, your options are severely limited. I'm not aware of any online storage provider that offers iPhone access. There may be some, but the big names don't offer it.

I am using BackupandShare.com to access files on my iPhone. Being a frequent traveler I need easy access of my important docs to my mobile every now and then. With Backupandshare.com I am relaxed on that front. Earlier I used mozy but I switched to backupandshare.com mainly for this feature. Their mobile version is very handy to access and download files on iphone.
