While we are able to recover many of these files, some can no longer be restored to its original form while others are simply irretrievable. I'd just like to comment that while it's true that hard drive failure is one of the major causes of data loss, the symptoms mentioned above could also be caused by a virus so it's also important to have a reliable anti-virus software.

There are no restrictions on how much you can backup. Unlimited truly means unlimited - at least as far as I know. It also states this on the Carbonite website as well. TravisVS Site Admin Maddie:

I've read from other reviews that their supposedly unlimited service is actually limited. I don't have the specifics right now but a user has to backup only up to a certain average as other users do. Do you have any info on this? I’d like to know about how much data you’re actually backing up with Carbonite. I’ve read from other reviews that their supposedly unlimited service is actually limited.

It probably would make sense to have some information on measures you can take to prevent your computer from crashing in the first place. I'll put something together soon and get it posted. Stay tuned... TravisVS Site Admin Andy:

I mean I see your point about the importance of using online backups like Carbonite but I'd also like to have as much use as I can out of my hard drive.
