Do any list members use Carbonite for backup? If so . . .
Have you ever had to restore a Legacy database from Carbonite? Did it work
well? Do you use a medium in addition to Carbonite (CD, external hard drive,
etc.) or rely only on the service?

Legacy User Group guidelines:
I personally use Dropbox with a folder that is not shared. I put my zip
backup files in the folder and it pushes them very quickly to the internet
cloud where I can pull them back down at any other computer if I need them. I
could also share the folder with others if necessary and they would
. Hopefully such disasters would
not coincide with a failure of my local hard drive, though.

Do any list members use Carbonite
Kirsten,
Sounds like your considering Carbonite's service so I thought I would chime
in here. I signed up for their free trial and was literally minutes away
from paying for a subscription when I learned something key. Carbonite will
not backup external drives. Only drives that are physically
I use Amazon's Cloud. Also have a pocket size hard drive. There ya go :)

I've restored Legacy back to a hard drive from Carbonite. Absolutely no
problems.

I have a friend who had a subscription to Carbonite and her Windows
Vista computer crashed. She got a new one with Windows 7 and it wasn't
a problem restoring the Family Files and linked data that were in the
c:\Legacy sub-folders.
She did have a big problem with everything else that was in the
7 matches
