Importance of backing up your harddrive
We covered a lot of topics in this stream. The video itself the first part you might notice a bit of lag time in the first video. I apologize about that the problem wasnt corrected until i began the second part of the video.
Anyways we heard from paul cooley who talked about his experience loosing all of his information on his laptop computer. He explained to us exactly what he lost and how i was able to help him recover some of that information.
We next went on to http://www.cyberguys.com and looked at harddrive enclosures. You can get 2.5″ enclosures for laptop HDs or 3.5″ for desktop HDs. We found both enclosures to be around $20-$40.
We then looked at http://www.frys.com and looked at a $79.99 for a 500GB external HD.
We looked at how to back up your HD at either the paid product Norton Ghost at http://www.norton.com or the free Windows Backup software that comes with some new windows machines.
