When was the last time you backed up your computer?

When was the last time you backed up your computer?

Don't run the risk of loosing your files, data, or photos. I had this happen on my wife's laptop, and the hard drive was making strange noises. Before I knew it, I reacted too late to recover. I took the laptop to a local repair shop, and the tech told me that it would cost $1,000 to recover the data. Why so much, the shop told me that the hard drive would be placed in an off site clean room facility.

So, I learn by doing. All my computers have a Iomega backup hard drive, with Norton recovery tools available. Just set everything to automatic, and then rest easy. I would recommend in making this a habit, for peace of mind sake.

Happy Computing
