How To Avoid Losing Your Files
By Lola Rodanni, 18 Mar 18:55
I had two data drives crash within a week once. One of the worst weeks of my life. Computer life is much safer now.. .and cheaper to save your home office files from disaster.
Here is how I do it.
First, I signed up for Carbonite for online backups for $50 a year. I have not had to restore yet but I have heard it is a good service. I backed up like 50 gigs. I have a lot of data. The price is not tying to the data.
Second, I keep all my data on a D drive in my PC. It is not on the C drive. I back up the D drive to an external US drive so I can move it or store it or whatever.
Third, I bought a Kingston Data Traveler 32 gig thumb drive. Amazing. They even make it in 64gigs and it is the size of my finger. Better yet, it is flash memory. NO MOVING PARTS. This means the data is much safer than your crappy standard hard drives that always eventually crash. This little guy fits in my pocket and contains 20 years of files, images, videos, all my accounting records etc.
If the house burns down while I am at the Rolling Stones concert, I have my data on me… plus I have it in the cloud (on Carbonite)
Where to get all this stuff? Source it, research it, then buy it online for less than a store.. except Fry’s sells a terabyte drive for $110 now. Hard to beat that.
Secure your data or you will have a very bad week soon.
