How To: Back Up Your Important Data.
Winter is near its end, and many people have received computers as gifts for the winter holiday season.
Some of them may be complete novices to computing and may not understand the importance of, or not even know the first thing about backing up important files and folders on their computer. Others may be of the “Ah, I’ll do it later…” group, constantly putting off backing up important content. I know the latter group quite well, as I used to be one of those types.
Some of these users might not even know that there are Free Online Backup Services available to them, such as the one offered by IDrive.com.
IDrive is a free, two gigabyte online storage solution that is able to do automated backups, taking most of the work out of your hands. Simply define folders to the application for safekeeping, and let the program do the rest.
Need to restore content? Simply launch the application, and select what you need restored.
It removes the excuse of “Well, I’ll do it later…” from your hands, and is easy enough to teach anyone how to do.
(The best part is, there’s no sorting through stacks of DVDs to find the recent backup of pictures of your family to share. :))
