Timely back up can save you from disasters

By Jakob Jelling

Computer has become a necessity for every field whether it’s related with technological work or not. This has really eased up the work pressure and is also more accurate form of the work. The use of computer has grown so widely that it has become a source of storing all the important data. Few appropriate examples could be banks, big companies etc. The work of computers is so important that if it breaks down even for few hours then the whole work comes to a halt.

So to avoid any disaster it is always highly recommended that you back up your important data in floppies or cd’s. As the saying goes that ‘prevention is always better than cure’. System can crash for many reasons and the most common form of system crash is corruption of some system file. Sometime the data of your system can get deleted unintentionally. But it’s not possible to get a back up of each and every file on the system. So you should first decide which files are the most important and then back those.

Few things which people often back up are e-mail addresses, bank records, photographs, personal records, software’s, music etc. Data back up is used so often that the companies like Microsoft have made it a part of their operating system. They have provided you with an option through which you can easily back up your data. The best way to back up the data keeping the space constraint in mind is to first zip or compress the file and then copy that to DVD’s or CD’s.

But its not that you should back up your data only once but rather you should make it a regular habit to copy important data once in a fortnight or in a month. This saves your time and also minimizes the risk of loosing important data. Data loss can severely hurt in many ways. There are some important addresses or numbers which you only have in your computer or you may have all your bank records and statements in computer. If they get lost for some reason than you can get in real trouble and you may also have to pay have price for it.

What to do if you have already lost some data? Can it be recovered through any source? The answer lies in between yes and no. Many companies have launched software’s through which data can be recovered. But it’s not always that all the data will be recovered. Only that part of the memory can be recovered which has been left untouched since the time data has been lost. So you can’t rely on these software’s. So the best thing you can do is to back up your data time to time.
