IT Tips for Everyone - Backup Solutions Overview

Imagine this: You have just spent hours, meticulously editing photos to prepare them for a family album.  Every image is perfected; their colors adjusted, the white balance corrected, and those pesky photo bombers are cropped out. Then, all of a sudden, your computer freezes!  Having seen a frozen computer before, you press the power button to turn it off.  You reach for the power button to turn it back on, hoping that you had saved that last picture you were working on.  The machine begins to whir, and you hear a strange clicking sound, not unlike a metronome and its click…click…click.  There’s a loud BEEP, and on the screen you see “Primary hard disk 0 not found.”  It’s far worse than you had imagined; you have lost days, possibly decades of memories…some of which, you will never have a chance to capture again.
