Why online backup?

Because your life is on your computer

Have you ever considered how much of your life is on your computer? Photos, emails, music, financial records, documents, and so much more. How would you feel if you lost it all?

Dangers lurk around every corner – accidental damage, theft, power surges, natural disasters, or accidentally deleting your own files. Losing your most valuable files is a very real possibility.

There are many ways to backup your PC: external hard drive, USB flash drives, CD, DVD, tape… but none are as safe and convenient as Carbonite’s Online Backup solution.

Set it. Forget it. And Relax
