If you want a more *nix-type relationship with Amazon's S3 service, there are plenty of tools like s3sync and s3cmd (*note* there is more than on tool with the name s3cmd). http://s3tools.org/s3cmd http://code.google.com/p/s3sync-s3cmd/
I like the look of these, I haven't looked at the Amazon stuff before but with the look of the buckets I could easily set one up for each device and just move the rsync I already have over to the new script and the right bucket. A ruby and python script to do the jobs as well, I think I've found my solutions! Robin
There are also commercial offerings like s3rsync. http://www.s3rsync.com/ -- byte_bucketCarboneite doesn't have a linux client so that looks out, Jungle Disk is a Rackspace product and I've had good experience with them so it could be in. I'll have a look at it. The only problem could be that it doesn't seem to support incremental backups just single files. Any solutions that handle incrementals?

I've probably got about about 5G to backup and was wondering about tape. I don't fancy building a large RAID system or buying something like a drobo as I know that I'll end up using it for normal storage rather than just backups and that will defeat the point. Any tips?
