Back up

The little things we take for granted with computers are the one we see their importance when they are in actual need. Not all of computer a Users take into consideration to create back up of their Operating System, boot files and data. Let say your OS and data are saved in one location which is C: drive and for any reason your computer crashes. In this situation you can not start your computer and the sad part you can not access you important files. In nowadays OS you can automate the back up so there are no excuses not to do it.

There different kind of back up you can choose from ranging from normal, copy, differential, incremental and daily back up.You just need to choose the one that suit your requirements. I can advice Users to use external hard drive as the back up media. Though you can use media such as USBs and CDs but I would personally recommend hard drive as you can back up as many things as you like due to it high capacity. My disadvantage of CDs and USBs is that you may end up having many copies which may lead to you forgeting the one with back up you need to restore or you may loose them.
