Noticed the press release about the new IDrive Unlimited plan this morning. Of course I have already talked about the new plan, and posted the details. I have even updated part of the IDrive review to show the new plan and compared the new unlimited IDrive plan to Backblaze and Carbonite. I have included the official press release below if you want to have a read.

CALABASAS, Calif., March 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Pro Softnet Corporation, a world-class provider of cloud storage, online backup, compliance, and remote access solutions for consumers and business, today announced an expansion to their popular IDrive online backup plan lineup with the new IDrive Unlimited plan. As its name suggests, IDrive Unlimited provides unlimited online backup storage for an attractively priced fixed annual fee. IDrive Unlimited is targeted to the home consumer market segment where vast and ever-growing amounts of digital pictures, videos, music, movies, and documents go largely unprotected.
IDrive is regarded as a premium online backup service and currently protects over 750,000 users with reliable, secure online backup for consumers and businesses of all sizes. With the advent of faster Internet connections, more consumers and businesses are pushing their backups to the cloud as a way to safeguard memories, content, and critical information from catastrophic loss.
IDrive is available in several different plans based on user’s specific needs, including IDrive Basic with 5GB free online storage and IDrive Pro for individuals, families, and business. Both offer automatic continuous protection at speeds up to 30% faster than competitive solutions, Windows¬Æ and Macintosh¬Æ platform support, and access to their backed-up files from anywhere. Users can easily schedule recurring backups to occur overnight when the computer is not in use. IDrive Lite is also available for backing up/migrating contacts on BlackBerry¬Æ, Android, and iPhone¬Æ mobile phones.
“IDrive Unlimited is a fantastic value for consumers who don’t want to be concerned with the size of their backups,” said Raghu Kulkarni, CEO for Pro Softnet Corporation. “Our company philosophy has always been to give our customers the best value possible without compromising on the security and integrity of their data, and IDrive Unlimited is a perfect example of this vision. 750,000 satisfied customers can’t be wrong.”
Pricing & Availability
IDrive Unlimited is currently available for a low fixed price of only $49.50 per year. Presently, IDrive Unlimited is offered for a single Windows-based computer only, and Internet bandwidth may be throttled by Pro Softnet after a 150GB threshold has been reached.
