[AccessD] Off-Site Backup

Yea this would be my question too. I might download the trial and see but
those of you who are already using Carbonite can probably answer the
question for us. The website blurb says it "works quietly and continuously
in the background". That worries me. I sometimes feel my PC has so much
stuff working "quietly" in the background that I've got no foreground left
(yes, just fitted more RAM before you ask). So can anyone give their
experience on what the performance hit is of Carbonite?
