Still, I figured I had nothing to lose on the newly set up drive, and told Mozy to overwrite. Odd, seems like that would be an obvious feature. No option to skip existing and only restore the missing files. Mozy offered to either overwrite all existing files with those backed up, to rename the restored files, or cancel. Next, I figured I would just do a full restore of C: drive. I am still not sure whether this suspicion was well-founded, but the experience is certainly not the one you want to have when you are already feeling a tad on edge about the safety of your data. This gave me the first feeling of unease - I feared Mozy would kick off backup and lose track of all the past data. Apparently these died with the drive, and Mozy was offering to start backing up my now empty documents folder. The first bit of bad news came when I launched Mozy and it had none of my backup settings.

A new hard drive and an OS install later, I was up and running and downloading the MozyHome client. No matter, I figured this would be just an inconvenience - after all, I thought ahead and I am paying for a backup service.

As an aside, I must say they don't make hard drives like they used to. I have not had a single hard drive fail on me prior to year 2000, but in the past few years, I have had at least several fail. The following evening, when I returned from work, things were worse, the drive would no spin up, and was making metallic noises. Two days ago I restarted Windows to apply some updates, and when I returned, the computer was stuck at the boot screen complaining about a missing system file. I have been using the MozyHome plan for the past year and today got to test what Mozy is like in disaster recovery mode.

It competes with the likes or carbonite and offers a range of plans to suit any budget (even no budget). Mozy is an online backup service with an attractive pricing model.
