When I dropped an external HD (hard drive) containing 2 years of my life stored on it, I knew I had to change how I backed up my files. If you currently backup your personal or work files, you are already one step ahead of most individuals who use no backup at all. But what happens when your external hard drive fails one day for no apparent reason?
This is where cloud backup services come into place. When you backup your computer to the cloud, it’s backed up on multiple hard drives simultaneously and even at multiple locations. The data is more secure, and less likely to be lost (99.9% less likely).
There are many options when you search for cloud backup services. Some of the popular companies are Carbonite, Mozy, and Google Drive. All of those are great options, but Birds on a Cable has partnered with HP to offer a service called Connected Backup. The setup is simple, and once installed, it is a worry-free backup system. Your data is more secure than ever, and you will be able to access your files anywhere you go.
