True Cost of Having No Backup Data
Almost as important as admitting it can happen to you, is recognizing the cost of data loss. Most people don't realize how much they have invested into data on their hard drive. Forget about the obvious things like financial data (Receivables, Payables, and Tax Information), which we know would be disastrous to lose. Instead think about the man-hours re-installing the base software on your computer, reconfiguring your environment to suit your preferences again.

Losing your e-mail addresses, music, pictures, Internet bookmarks and much more. Without a full data backup, getting up and going again could easily cost you several days of productivity. How much is your time worth to you?

 

Did you Know? Every week 140,000 hard drives crash in the United States. 

A few companies I recommend to backup your data one is called Mozy and the other is Elephant Drive!
