In addition to saving you much in the way of worry regarding the loss of valued emails, documents, photos and the like, Carbonite offers special web-based, remote protection, which acts like an ad hoc accessible offsite server. Setting it up is easy, and can happen with only a few clicks.

Carbonite features a 15 Petabyte storage capacity, providing internet and computer users an indispensable service, at a bargain rate of only pennies a day. They also offer a 15-day free trial, to introduce you to their services.

Once a small Carbonite data backup program is set up on your computer, it requires little ongoing work on behalf of the user. It reads and stores your data as long as you’re on the internet, and users can also log on to the Carbonite site and access their files.

Also, there are no limits on backup storage capacity. Carbonite will back up all the supported files on your internal hard drive whether you have 1GB, 10GB or more. However, users should be aware that the speed of today’s DSL and cable internet services will make it very slow to back up more than, say, a few dozen GB of data.

By default, Carbonite backs up everything in your Documents and Settings folder (called Users in Windows Vista), including documents, photos, email and data files from applications, such as Quicken, Money, etc. Once a subscription is purchased, music is also added to the list. The default backup does not include programs, system files, temporary files, videos, or individual files greater than 4GB. You can, however, manually add any of these to your Carbonite backup.

Carbonite’s Online Backup is designed to backup all of the unique and irreplaceable files on your computer – your text documents, spreadsheets, financial documents, photos, music, etc.

Don’t get caught in a data loss situation without secure backup. Get Carbonite and rest assured your valuable photos, emails, spreadsheets and files won’t be lost forever.
