Back Up Your Computer with Carbonite

Computers can crash at anytime, so it’s super important that you back up all your information so that paper you have due tomorrow? You don’t have to redo it if your computer suddenly dies. Or if your computer decides that it doesn’t like you and decides to delete it without consulting you first. With computers, anything can go wrong if it contracts a virus or someone hacks your things, so it’s always best to be prepared. Carbonite is a super easy online program that automatically backs up your computer for you once you download the software.

For only $59.99 a year (plus a 10% student discount from Studentrate!), Carbonite will automatically search your computer when you have internet access for new and updated files to back them up. They get placed in a data center that is guarded all day, every day. 24 hours nonstop, so no one will break into or hack your files. They are encrypted twice on their transport to the data center, ensuring that no one else but the owner will have access.

Carbonite has backed up over 700 billion files. Also,they have restored 20 billion files for customers, and can do the same for you if your computer has crashed and you didn’t back them up. If you need help backing up files, you can call customer service and there will be someone to help you with the process. And as long as you have backed up your files, you can access them on any device when you have interest. That includes tablets and smartphones, so if you’re on the go but need to find something, you can. Don’t wait until after you’ve lost everything to decide to back up your files.
