Thanks Adraco to confirm this

Business is a bit pricey if you need to backup terabytes worth of data though their versioning (keeps up to 30 copies of each file so you can potentially restore an older version if you got a virus, hacked or something) is great. it may make sense to use a more basic option like Glacier for your media files and then IDrive for your non-media files.

If it costs less $100 to retrieve the data after an incident -- if that is too much then you are on the wrong business ...
I would use rsync or scp and save it locally first. Use glacier as a backup of the backup ...
It depends on what the data is worth to you ...

Now when i think about this, that rates could seems to be reasonable compare to what a tech haved charge me in the past when my Vbulletin been hacked.
Those guys from VB .ORG if i recal correctly was $150+/ hour and that for many hours trying to retreived the website.
$100 - $300 to retrieve all my data ? That's Priceless IMO.... I don't minded paying that after all
Thanks Barry for your investigation will definetly look into this Glacier
