CrashPlan Offsite Backup
Because JungleDisk refused to play nice with my mobile internetconnection (causing my system to bog down), I started looking for an alternative offsite backup solution. I ended up using CrashPlan. My MacBook now backs up to a home server at my sister's house. CrashPlan has been running on my laptop for over 2 months now, and it's been a smooth ride. No interference when on low bandwidth connecion, and a small footprint altogether. From my family members I hear that CrashPlan works just fine on Windows XP and Vista too.
Highly recommended, if you're not backing up to an offsite location yet (think of all those documents and pictures), be sure to have a look at CrashPlan. If you don't have a remote server to back up to, or if you'd rather store your backup at a data center, CrashPlan offers paid plans for offsite backups to their servers.
