 (ARA) - Theft, fire, flood, natural disasters and hard drive crashes - every year, up to 43 percent of computer users lose irreplaceable files. You know you should back up your files, but it's probably one of those tasks where you think to yourself, "Maybe I can get to that tomorrow…"
Have you checked lately how much data you have on your computer - 5GBs, 50GBs, more? It adds up fast with all those photos, music, emails and financial records! It's not a question of "if", but "when" you will lose this important data - and it almost always happens without warning. Don't wait until it's too late.
Backing up to CDs, DVDs and memory sticks takes more time and patience than most of us have, and external hard drives take up space and are susceptible to the same disasters that your computer faces. These days, the smartest consumers are choosing an easier and safer way to automatically back up their computers - online.
Online backup has been around for years, and as data storage costs have fallen and high-speed Internet connections have become the norm, this service has really taken off. One of the core benefits of backing up online is that it's completely automatic - just set it up once and forget about it. As you change and add files, it will keep your backup up-to-date whenever your computer is connected to the Internet. Plus, it means that your precious backup is stored in the best possible location: safely offsite.
Boston-based Carbonite has been a leader in online computer backup technology, protecting consumers and small businesses since 2006. They also pioneered the concept of unlimited backup space for one flat cost - a very affordable $49.95/year, especially when you consider how much you'd probably be willing to pay to get your data back after a computer disaster.
At Carbonite, the privacy and security of your data is a top priority. Everything is encrypted before it leaves your computer, so only you can see your files - it's the same thing banks do when you use online banking. Then, if you lose just one or all of your files for any reason, you can get them back in just a few clicks.
Once you consider how much of your life is on your computer, the importance of backup cannot be underestimated. See why CNET news praises Carbonite as a "worthy investment of time and money, particularly for users who want a hands-off solution to backing up their data." And why CNN proclaims, "Carbonite can provide the equivalent of a fireproof safety deposit box for digital content."
Get the peace of mind you deserve and the protection you need to keep your important computer files safe. Visit Carbonite today and sign up for a free 15-day trial – no credit card required.
