File Backups
Data loss is inevitable as hard drives do fail and critical files do become corrupted. The best way to ensure that your client's critical data is secure is by developing an automated backup strategy. Windows has built-in backup software that supports a variety of storage media, including tape drives, hard drives, or removable media. However, in Windows 9x it is not installed by default and must add via the Add/Remove Software component of the Control Panel. Third-party vendors provide additional backup software that can write to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-RAM, and other forms of inexpensive, high-volume media.
