For those interested - I ran a test this weekend to see what my recovery time would look like.
I have about 100GB online with Carbonite now and from the few tests I ran last night and today, it would take me about 7 days to fully recover it all to local disk after a disaster. It's not fast, but considering it's pictures/movies/etc., I'm willing to wait that long considering the low cost I pay for the service.
That wouldn't be nearly good enough for an enterprise solution, but fortunately that's not what I'm after here.
