Online file storage solutions?

Prophet · 9 Aug 2009 at 12:40

A friend would like to have remote access to his files, however due to the location of his offices the internet has a dreadful upload speed meaning it takes an ages to download them when he's off site.

Could anyone suggest a company who will host his files (mainly word docs) and look after backups etc.

He needs around 50GB space.

Cheers

What sort of budget is he looking at ?

Also does he want a proper industrial set up or something pony and consumer orientated?

Budget would be around £100 a month. I should be able to get this raised if I can justify it.

Personally I'd like something industrial but that would mean me having to support anything he doesn't understand, and with him being none IT literate it needs to be as 'early learning' as possible.

Great, thanks. I'll have a look at the links

The data will consist of word documents and jpg's. The company writes reports so it's not database driven or anything demanding.

As they work all over Europe the MD want a central hub where everything can be accessed.

They've only got to 40GB of data after 10 years!
