Back it Up!

Hello once again, this is going to be a short and brief post. But nevertheless still carrying an important message.

I want to talk about creating a "back up". A back up is a process of creating a copy of your existing data or documents for safe keeping in case of emergency.

Just very recently I have come across different computer and mobile handset users, with a near crying and in despair experience depending on how events might have turned out.

It's no question, these days we carry our important files in our phone and computers. This way it's very easy for us to edit, print or scan in time as things are needed. As long as everything is okay, we enjoy the trend! But problem comes in when our device crashes or becomes infected with viruses. An expert might have a work around for our problem with the risk of data loss.

In my experience, I have always found it hard and time consuming when I'm working on a device problem but the owner instructs me to make a backup before the fix. As it may seem being careful, but Its just too late to back up a broken machine! And usually, the owner is forced to weigh what is important in a blink of minutes, all that 1 terabyte (TB) before it is formatted to nothing.

That being said, do you still want to risk it? Let's make it a habit creating a back up of our most important documents separately and very often. Keep the copy of your files safe.

Here are some of the methods you can pick up, back up your files to an SD Card (inde memory card), an external hard drive, or to a cloud (to make is simple "to your email account")

Bear in mind a back up will cost you, but at least it's a small price than to lose everything.
