Although right now, even at $120 a month for the SB plan (it's $10 a month per device), it's cheaper than other cloud options that currently support Linux (S3, Wasabi, B2, etc). That gives me until May 2019 to find a suitable replacement. If I take them up on their convert to the small business plan and take the 75% off for the first 12 months, it would actually be cheaper than Crashplan Home Pro for that 12 months for one device. Thankfully I have until May(ish) 2018 until my subscription expires. After adding a new computer, you can begin backing up files for that computer. I'd say I'd remotely mount the drives to a Windows VM or something and then upload from there, but I think the Backblaze client detects that it's not an actual installed hard drive. CrashPlan for Small Business subscription pricing is based per device, so each month you are only billed for the number of active devices in your organization. I'm currently backing up about 4.5 TB of data (granted the bulk of that is video which doesn't really NEED to be backed up). I would love to use Backblaze but the fact that there isn't a Linux client kinda sucks. Looking at their blog announcement, there are also MANY others not happy. Been using Crashplan for quite a while and not exactly happy about the change.
