Backup Time – what system do you have in place?
I always start thinking of organizing and filing near tax time. Gotta be ready for the taxman and if you have a system in place you are probably not getting all stressed out right now.
I also have a system in place for backing up my computer files and information. Working virtually for many clients I have all sorts of information on work I do for them stored on my computer. I simply cannot afford to lose it.
Having a backup system in place means I have a copy of all those files when needed.
How often?
I back up to a portable hard drive every night, which is then disconnected from my PC after so no damage can occur to it and then there is an online one I do weekly as well. I do this nightly because some days I can enter a lot of information for clients – and I really don’t have any time to re-do or recapture the information. When I head out of my office to make supper – I plug in the hard drive and let it back up everything new. A simple process and very painless.
