Carbonite

Carbonite works.

I needed it to work the other day when I discovered I had deleted my deerbite video (see Deer Bite in Japan.) I got it back after a mysterious process but that is ok with me.

You never think you are going to have a hard drive fail until you do. Unfortunately, my hard drive failed and then my backup storage drive failed about a week later. Fortunately, I had backed up my pictures to individual storage dvd's but it is very time consuming to get things back up and running after you install a new drive. The odds of two catastrophic failures happening within a week of each other is pretty slim. Probably like the odds of winning the big prize in the California Lottery.

What's worse is when a friend asks how you are and you start telling them about the worst thing that has happened to your data ever and how much time you have lost trying to restore things right--then their eyes glaze over and they look sad that they asked you how you were.

So basically, there are some people who will go out and get it before they need it. Then there are converts like me who have already been through that sickening feeling....twice in a week. Word to the wise--go get it.
