I don't think backing up ginormous image files is a good fit with these online backup sites. They're better for backing up specific data like stuff from My Documents or a backup of your e-mail or anything else that can't be resurrected by re-installing your operating system or applications. Would you want to take a couple of weeks to download an image to restore your system?
I'd just get an external hard drive, put your image file on that and store it somewhere safe. Then use an online backup site for data files. ---------------------- Bob Hartung Wisco Industries, Inc. 736 Janesville St. Oregon, WI 53575 Tel: (608) 835-3106 x215 Fax: (608) 835-7399 e-mail: bhartung(at)wiscoind.com _____ From: Webster [mailto:[email protected]] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Fri, 18 Jun 2010 10:50:51 -0500 Subject: RE: HI anyone here use carbonite online backup? I use Carbonite on my PC, my Mac and my Dad’s PC. Works great, has saved my dad from “stupid user tricks” several times and you can now access your files over the Internet. Isn’t an Acronis True Image backup file huge? It took 21 days for Carbonite to backup my initial 70GB of data from my main PC. Webster From: justino garcia [mailto:[email protected]] Subject: HI anyone here use carbonite online backup? HI anyone here use carbonite, I wondering can I set it up the carbonite pro (online backup) version to backup a folder that only has Acronis true image backups? So after a backup is done, it will offsite and stored at carbonite. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
