Additional information on backups

April 17, 2007

Trying to be blog appropriate, I did not go any further with what how you can backup files from your PC on the post in the New PC User’s blog. Another thing not mentioned in the post on New PC Users blog – Backing up your files is that you can ftp your files from your PC to a backup site on the Internet if you have a site created. Some hosts do not permit some forms of this type of usage. A good utility to use for backing up your files by using ftp is called FileZilla. I have it and use it to publish my personal home page. Before attempting to try this option is to see what limitations exist on a site of your choosing.

One plan I have pending is that when I get a new PC, I am going to make the one I am using now into a backup server. All backups will be stored on it. Also, it will be a backup PC should any of the other two go down. This is something that I’ve been planning on for a while. Hope this information is useful.

You can find backup software on Download.com.
