Regular daily, weekly and monthly backups should be implemented in any business or situation where you can’t afford to loose items stored on your PC and servers. In the past this could be quite a costly process with tape drives and complex backup software.
However, with the drop in price of hard drives believed to fall by at least a 1/3 every year, the cost of an external hard drive to backup your whole system should now seriously be considered in any business no matter how small. Used in conjunction with excellent open source or freeware backup software available, comprehensive backups can be configured quickly, easily and automatically to your external hard disk.
