So I signed up for a new account a little over a week ago. Like many others have said, upload can be quite spotty. I generally throttle myself to 2-4mbps as to not choke my connection, but many times I have caught the computer sending NOTHING. Yesterday I ran unthrottled and found that its transfer rates when it does work are fine (pretty much maxed out my 10mbps upload) but the problem is there are to many times when the transfer is straight up idle. One thing to keep in mind is the PC doing the backup is a mini-pc that is doing NOTHING except running idrive and a PLEX server (mostly idle). There is nothing that should cause the idrive to consider holding back.
Today I tried to view the status of what I had uploaded already and I got nothing on the refreshes. I go to the web site and I get this, "Your files and folders are currently unavailable as account is under maintenance. Try again later." wtf is this? What good is a backup service if I don't have access to my backups when I need them?
I don't ask for much, I just need a place to store a large drive image offsite, nothing more nothing less. But at this rate, this service is NOT meeting even the bare minimum of services required.
