Comment on DigitalOcean lost our data and gave us $500

So if you were backing up your data to Tarsnap, then you'd be up and running as quickly as you could launch a new instance and redownload everything. And $500 credit is enough to power a micro droplet for 100 months, or a small droplet for 50 months. DO handled this well.

EDIT: s/years/months/g. Thanks.

You mean months.

50 months == 4 years and 2 months 100 months == 8 years and 4 months
