Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Well, not really. Since launching NABBW I have been concerned about backing up my PC. I use a program called Back Up My PC and have used it for years, but was afraid that wasn't enough. I had my computer techie here yesterday. He installed an external hard drive so I no longer have to worry. Now all I have to do is remember to back it up both ways every Friday and I should be covered. The best part was he didn't charge me! I've been asking him to get here for well over a month and he was sorry it took him so long. What a pleasant surprise cause he ain't cheap! What do you do to back up your work? Anything?

Tami Member Registered: 03/23/06 Posts: 55 Loc: Kansas	Oh, what a must DO! I would be in a world of hurt if I lost my hard drive! My web site would be safe because it's backed up nightly by my hosting company. Everything else relating to my business is my responsiblity. Finances, client lists, graphic design files, passwords, concepts, ideas...endless! I recently went the same route as you and purchased an external hard drive and back up software. Whew! What a relief it is to have that! One less thing to worry about! Tami

JaMaPh member Registered: 07/22/06 Posts: 162 Loc: Phoenix, Az	We have an external hard drive, two I think. I want NO accidents again. Been there, done that. And I put important stuff on floppies, now it will be CD's. and put it in the lock box. Formulas, recipes. I think it's set for every wednesday. JaMa _________________________ Thinning hair? Rosacea?

Anno Member Registered: 09/15/05 Posts: 4434 Loc: Minneapolis Minnesota	I am like JJ and I pray alot. My work computer crashed last year and I lost 2 years of work. Didn't learn my lesson yet, tho. Maybe it's time I considered some external hard drive, too. _________________________ Follow our story of living, loving and laughing with a debilitating disease: http://www.multiplesystematrophyandshy-drager.blogspot.com

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Anno, try "backup my pc." It's a relatively inexpensive way to go. You purchase the program and decide what you want to back up, then set it up to do so daily, weekly, whatever. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com
