Copy-and-Paste Backup System

Posted on 30. Jul, 2010 by in PC Health

Congratulations, the journey is just about over. Throughout this series of reports we’ve discovered the need for backing up mission-critical user data stored on your computer honestly, the need to back stuff up should be pretty obvious, but I’m sure some people just needed a little encouragement to make sure it gets done. We’ve also dug deep into the Windows file and folder stretcher system to see where important information is stored. And we’ve done a little investigative work to find out exactly how much storage space will be needed to back up all our important business and personal information. We’ve considered hardware options talked a little bit about software, and even looked at some online backup options as well.

Backup Hardware – Big and Small

Posted on 29. Jul, 2010 by in PC Health

Typical External Hard Drive

Up to this point, we’ve been talking about the theory of backing up your stuff. How important it is to back up the mission critical user data on your computer on a regular basis. Now it’s time to shift gears slightly, and talk about the hardware we’ll need to do the job. The hardware you choose is going to depend on several factors, and you’ll make a couple of decisions about how you’ll store and transport the backed-up information.

Data Backup vs. System Restore – What a Difference!

Posted on 28. Jul, 2010 by in PC Health

Before we go any farther, let’s take a moment to talk about an important difference in the computer-related disaster-recovery business. That’s the difference between “backing up” your data, and doing a “system recovery.” Many times, I’ve received angry phone calls from clients who’ve been told they needed to do a “full system recovery” on their computers by some long-distance telephone tech support person. And only when they’re finished with the recovery process do they find that the important personal data that had been stored on their PC is totally, completely gone. Wiped out. Never coming back. Yikes! Now, I need to say here – in the interest of full and fair reporting – that some recovery systems on new computers will attempt to save and restore that all-important “user data” – the stuff you create and save in the course of using your PC for business. But instructions for doing that are not always clear and easy to understand, and some people may be under the (mistaken) impression that doing a “system restore” will not remove their personal data.

Backup Roadmap – Finding Everything To Back Up

Posted on 27. Jul, 2010 by in PC Health

Now that we’ve made the case for backing up the important data that’s stored on your computer, the next step is knowing exactly where to find that data. Windows makes it easy by including a set of built-in folders and subfolders to store important “user data.” Time for a new concept: the “default” folder. Default means what the computer does automatically, unless you tell it otherwise. In the case of storing documents, pictures, music and other user data, Windows has set up folders for each type of data file, and generally does a good job of putting that information into the correct folder automatically.
Where does Windows keep all these folders? All of them – and a few more – are “sub” folders stored under the main User Account folder. Each “user” on your computer has their own account. For example, when you first boot up the computer each morning, you may see several different user names listed. At this point, you click on your user name to go to your account. That way, you see only your documents, your music and your pictures. Similarly, another user who logs on with their user account, even if it’s the same computer, we’ll see a completely different set of documents, pictures, music and everything else. (more…)

Back Up Your “Mission Critical” PC Data

Posted on 26. Jul, 2010 by in PC Health

It’s a simple fact of business life: Disasters happen, both in the physical, real world… and in the computer world, too. In the case of a physical disaster, you have insurance to replace anything that might be damaged or lost. But what about the information stored on your business or home-office PC? For many small businesses and SOHO (Small Office / Home Office) professionals, computer-based information is often the backbone of the business, and may be the most valuable asset the business owns. The corporate, high-tech for that data is “mission critical” information. You need to protect yours, and “backing it up” is the easiest, most efficient way to protect your business’s valuable information. Of course most business owners (and home PC users) know the concept of data backup and recovery, but how many actually do it? (more…)

Your Data Is Important – Back It Up

Posted on 25. Jun, 2010 by in PC Health

You have insurance on your car, you have insurance on the building that houses your business (or your home office) and yet many  small business owners and professionals don’t carry “information insurance” when it comes to the important digital information stored on their store, office, or home-office PC.  Honestly, in the business world, that just crazy! Especially when information insurance – namely, backing up important data from your PC – is one of the cheapest forms of protection you’ll ever buy.
