Do you use a computer at your home or office? Does your computer have some or other important data stored on it? Do you backup your data regularly? If not, then it means that you are probably not aware of data loss. In recent times, there have been many data loss incidents which have ruined many businesses.
Data loss incidents can actually cause a lot of headaches, especially if you lose your precious photos, personal and business information, files, documents etc. Data loss can be due to many reasons like hard disk failure, system failure, natural disasters etc. Therefore, there is a serious need for everyone to back up their data effectively.
For years people have been using traditional devices like CDs, DVDs, portable hard drives, USB and memory sticks etc. However, they are not completely reliable as these devices do not work efficiently. Many times the optical drives cannot read the data that is stored in the CDs and DVDs. USB sticks and portable hard drives at times do not get connected.
Thus, to overcome such circumstances, online data backup was introduced. It is the safest way to store and safeguard your vital data. Online data backup stores your data on the server which is located at a remote location. This method is also called remote data backup. Using online data backup you can store your entire hard disk contents on the online data backup company’s server.
