You know that feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when a digital file goes missing? You immediately think: "Did I back that up? I must have. Did I?" Well, let's go over the top five best backup practices so we can avoid that feeling forever.
A quick word of warning - make sure whatever backup methods you're using are approved by your IT admin.
Whatever files you want backed up should be on two different devices: That could be two hard drives, flash drives or even optical discs.
If you make a copy on a flash drive, that's two copies both at your desk.
What if you want a full computer backup in the cloud? Then things change a little.
Sure, it's nice to have a hard drive that's constantly backing up your stuff or a cloud service uploading all the time.
