While ElephantDrive does not have a WHS add-in, I’m using it to back-up all my shared folders on the Home Server. I installed it via Remote Desktop.
Elephant gives you unlimited backup space, keeps 3 versions, has a scheduler, web access to files, 100 GB transfer per month, $50/year and uses Amazon for storage.
What are other people using?

I’ve followed Johns reccomendation and installed Elephant, the interface is easy and very user freindly i’ve just started of my first backup all 446Gb of it, so now idea how long that is going to take, but it is certainly happening, i will report back with an update

Still not finished Pete?
I think Elephantdrive sound good..allthough wondering how does it handle the 100gb monthly limit when doing a first time backup that i bigger..like Petes?
Also it does not support file names with non english characters…perhaps a problem for me in denmark.

John – Can you get ElephantDrive to run on your WHS as a service? I’m having problems with that. I have uTorrent running as a service and i followed the same procedure for ElephantDrive but no luck…

I’ve used CrashPlan for about 1 year with great success. Currently backup around 600GB to a remote drive at a family members computer about 4 states away. No monthly storage fee’s since it my own drive.
