While burning data to a CD or DVD is the commonly thought of data backup solution, there are several more efficient options of personal data backups. External hard drives, home network-attached storage (NAS), and online storage are some of the various options available for backing up your business or personal PC. The following is a brief overview of some of the best backup solutions and tools for your business or personal PC. For more information, you can contact Nextora, based in San Diego. Computer Services are our specialty.
External Hard Drive
One simple backup solution is an external hard drive. External hard drives typically connect to your computer via USB or FireWire. A great external drive can cost several hundred dollars, but there are less expensive external drives available. They are beneficial in that they give you flexibility and eliminate the hassle of labeling, filing, and keeping track of media. Additionally, you can easily add to and delete from an external hard drive. There are several hard disk drives on the market, varying in capability, size, brand, and price.

Network-Attached Storage
NAS is generally more expensive than purchasing an external hard drive, but NAS is very secure and it has the ability to backup an entire network as opposed to one computer. In brief, NAS is file-level computer data storage, or backup, connected to a computer network providing data access to network clients. The operating system, which is separate from your computer’s operating system, and other software on the NAS unit provide the functionality of data storage, file systems, access to various files, and management of files and all the functionalities. Contrary to popular belief, your computer’s performance will not decrease with a NAS unit because the file serving is done by the separate NAS server and not by the server responsible for doing other processing on your computer. The performance of NAS devices depends heavily on the speed of the network and on the amount of traffic on the network as well as the amount of cache memory on the NAS unit. NAS can be complex, so feel free to contact Nextora for assistance.

Online Backup Services
Another effective backup solution, which has become much more popular in recent years, is the use of an online backup service. Online Backup Services are simple, effective, easy and quick to set up, and generally cost efficient. They are definitely something you should investigate, particularly if you have the bandwidth. For either a monthly or annual fee, you can keep your important files on someone else’s server and not have to worry about any hardware.

Backup Software
Once you’ve decided which method you want to utilize for your backup solution, it is a good idea to obtain a software application to employ the solution for you automatically. Although software is not required in order to make use of your backup solution, having backup software will ease the pressure off you and make backup easier. For example, you can just trust yourself to remember to drag a copy of each and every important document to backup every time you create or modify it. However, this can become tedious and oftentimes you will forget to do it. It is better to have a software application automatically backup your documents for you. Some operating systems, such as Windows Vista automatically come with backup software. If your operating system does not come with a backup solution, no worries, there are plenty of great ones available for backing up selected files and folders, all files of a particular type, and more.

There are plenty of options when it comes to data backup solutions. You just need to take the initiative. Contact Nextora and speak to one of our San Diego computer consultants
