Backblaze is one of only a few companies that offer restores via an external medium like an external hard drive. They used to offer a DVD restore option for $99 but have just removed the DVD option and in its place are not offering a restore by a 28GB USB flash drive. The best part is you can get the new flash drive restore up to 28GB for the same price that the DVD restore was.
The new USB flash drive restore holds the same as 7 DVD restores would have held and once you are done restoring your data you get to keep the USB flash drive. While it might cost more than downloading your data it can save a considerable amount of frustration trying to download a large restore from the Internet. The restore is shipped to you via FedEx and will have you up and running again with all of your data before you know it.
This is also a great way to restore if your computer has been lost in some kind of disaster. All you need to do is login to the Backblaze web admin and order your restore from another computer that you have available to you. You might even get the restore before you replace your computer.
