System Requirements

Important system requirements:

High-speed internet (ADSL or cable), Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Vista, 128MB RAM, CD ROM Drive.

Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) charge for uploads and, depending on the amount of information you have stored on your PC, your initial backup using Carbonite could be quite large. If your monthly data transfer allowances are exceeded your ISP may either throttle back access speeds, or charge you excess data transfer fees. Please check with your ISP about your data transfer upload allowances and charges.

To find out more about the ISPs and the plans where charges do apply if you exceed your monthly data limit, visitĀ CarboniteĀ News.

Carbonite enables you to schedule your backup to “off peak” times, when available. Also, consider managing the initial backup process by incrementally adding additional files, file storage areas or file types each month to what you permit Carbonite to backup.
