Backup

February 15th, 2007 · No Comments

Just a reminder that if you haven’t recently, take some time out to backup your computer. I just backed up my itunes library to a second hard drive. I’m proud to say that I have 63gigs of music. Goodheavens! Not on my main drive. My archive. Anyway. I have two back ups. One to an external hard drive that includes a bootable clone of my main drive. And the other is my music library. Then I also have a backup to DVD my documents folder and my applications folder. Finally, my addressbook, calendar, password library and preferences are all backed up to an ftp. I’ve been bit hard by harddrive crashes so I take it all seriously.

Wisdom on the subject is that there are two types of people in the world: 1). those whose hard drives have crashed. and 2). those whose hard drives _will_ crash. In any event, be prepared. Backup!
