Back up Back up BACK UP!!!

Ok today the lesson is on backing up your computers, and then backing up those backups. We had a situation today at work where our some of our server hard drives failed. We all thought someone was backing up the data where in reality no one was, well except someone that did it in late '06. Just so you know some data can be recovered from hard drives, but it costs a fortune. It is much cheeper to go out and buy an external hard drive and do regular backups. In fact some drives now come with software that will do the backups for you.

So now at work we are trying to figure out our backing up procedures and equipment that will need to be started. if anyone has any good ideas I'd like to hear them. I run a mac and the rest of the company uses PC's.

On another note if you are looking for a good place to buy external or internal drives check out www.owcomputing.com they have good products and reasonable prices.

I really am smart...at least a little.

I was searching my name on Google today and found a lot of cool people that share the same name as mine (first and last). here is a Youtube i found that could be me...if I could sing...or act.
