Backup Reminder: May 2011

Sunday, May 1st, 2011

I think the recent storms in the south are a reminder off-site backup can be just as important these days as a local backup.

Backup Reminder: November 2010

Monday, November 1st, 2010

A monthly backup of your system should be a minimum (hence these reminders) so you might consider something like CrashPlan for automated backups. I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and like it so far. The next thing I need to test is restoration as a backup is only as good as being able to get the info back.
