Importance of backup

Posted by Bela |

Did you ever experience losing all your data when your hard disk failed and you have no data protection solutions in place?

I remember that situation happened to me couple of months ago. We keep all our pictures in our PC as well as all PSD file for my scrapbook layouts. We never had a habit of backing it up to a DVD or external hard drive and we really never realized the importance of a back up system when our hard disk failed and we can’t do anything but cry over all our lost pictures and files.

We have to accept the fact the computers fail. They break down either due to a virus, power failure and hard disk problem and so a backup system is really necessary.

The first thing that we need is backup software that will allow us to back up and restore data. There are a lot of software available in the market like the backup software of syncsort that will allow you to back up an entire serve in just a couple of minutes. Once you have the software, you then need to decide which files to back up and how often they need to be backed up.

Having a backup system will of course cost you money but the benefits that you will get in having a system that you can rely on incase your system fails is really a good tradeoff in the end.

I backup my files and emails with a very easy to use software called Titan Backup, the destination is a 500gb WD harddisk, but the company stated that an online feature is under work also. Give it a free trial here.

I also got my hands on a 30% discount coupon from them, during the order process enter this coupon:NEOB-M5VL
