BACKING-UP OUR DATA
The datas of your computers are very
important, maybe more important than computer itself. Yes, work’s data, old important data, proposal data, confidential
data and so on. One word is that true,
DATA is very important. But loosing data is usually happened, so to prevent in
loosing data you must have data BACK-UP. It is wise to make one or more data
back-up, to make sure your all (important) data is not lost (without back-up).
Where You will store your data ?
In other word how and where to
back-up our data.
Generally we have three data storages.
Dynamic data storage and static data storage, and now days we have online data
storages that provided by server/cloud data storages. We called cloud data
storages or server data storages.
Backing-up Your data.
1.Static data storage, e.g :CD -r,
DVD-r, CD-rw, DVD-rw, you will back-up
safer with static data storage, and with read only static data the safest. But
this media maybe damage by screcth, so store them carefully. Two year or more
your data will be safe if you make a good maintenance, put your CD/DVD in the
place that dry and cool, do not put them in the moist, hot and direct sunlight,
and keep them from magnetic induction. Rewriteable
CD/DVD is static data storage but you must be more caution for replacing old
data – that maybe in your dvd/cd rw – because it can be replaced by new data for
few times – 3 or4 times only - . The
weakness of this (static data storage) is the small /less capacity than dynamic
data storages.
2. Dynamic data storage,e.g: Memory
Card – SD,Micro SD, M2, Stick Pro Duo,MMC, Mini SD – etc, flash disk, External
Harddisk, SSD – solid state disk, harddisk. Back-up with this media has more risks than
the static data storages. This media may
be infected by viruses/malware. Damage in their electronic tools - motherboard,
IC - , and mechanic tools too. Electic shock / not safely remove will be dangerous to this media. The strength of this media has big/ more capacity.
But with extra careful maintenance will make your data safe.
3. Cloud data storages, there are
two of them paid server data storages and free data storages. I can show you
the free one, you can store/save your data in their server with free, www.4shared.com, www.mediafire.com, www.ziddu.com,
and so on, but they provide the premium – paid –data storage too. The
paid one is always better and safer than free one.
PREVENTIVE ACTION ALWAYS BETTER
If you lost your data without
backed them up, maybe will be bad moment, but there are many ways to make your
data back. Even not 100 percent you can save them better less than never. You
can use softwares : get my data back –ntfs and fat32 -, recuva, forensic kit,
etc.
Thanks.
