Re: What files do you back up?
I often back up and protect the files that are my intellectual property: the work that, if lost, could not be easily duplicated and would cause me great distress. My intellectual property includes my academic papers, thesis, problem sets, and work list. Saving my important work to the Central File Server can help avoid a potential disaster.
I will consider a strategy of attaching a peripheral device and copying the data to it, such as: a portable USB key, an MP3 player, an iPod, a Jump Drive, a Zip Drive, or an External Hard Drive .I then have backups of my data available without having access to the network.
