Have you done your backup recently? There’s no time like NOW!
Join the Twitter Party on #AcronisWBD at 4pm today to learn about backup and win prizes!
Established in 2011, World Backup Day serves to remind people the importance of protecting their data.
#AcronisWBD Twitter Party today 4pm
I have been invited by Acronis to co-host a Twitter Party today from 4-5pm, so we can have some fun learning more about backup, answer some quiz questions and win some prizes along the way.
I will be posing a question on data security and will be giving away a Polaroid Zip mobile printer to a lucky Twitter follower who tweets the correct answer.
So do join us on Twitter via the hashtag #AcronisWBD. Just click on the link.
Good Luck!
So backup now by making a copy of your data so you won’t lose it in case something happens to your computer.
So even if you’re hit by a virus, hardware failure, natural disaster, or anything else, you can restore your system from a reliable backup.
Here are three ways you can backup your data.
- External media. There is a wide variety of external storage media you can choose, including USB drives, external hard drives, DVDs and more.
- Cloud storage. Your internet connection means there are many cloud storage services available to you. Some are free, some you pay for.
- Network drives. If your computer is on a local area network (LAN), you can backup to a network folder or network attached storage (NAS) device.
