何處可以儲存備份

You should store backup copies of your files somewhere separate from your computer — on an external hard disk, for example. That way, if the computer breaks, or is lost or is stolen, the backup will still be intact. For maximum security, you shouldn’t keep the backup in the same building as your computer. If there is a fire or theft, both copies of the data could be lost if they are kept together.

It is important to choose an appropriate backup medium too. You need to store your backups on a device that has sufficient disk capacity for all of the backed-up files.

本機與遠端儲存選項

  • USB 隨身碟(低容量)

  • 內建硬碟(高容量)

  • 外接硬碟(通常為高容量)

  • 網路儲存裝置(高容量)

  • 檔案/備份伺服器(高容量)

  • 可寫入的 CD 或 DVD(低容量/中容量)

  • 線上備份服務(例如 Amazon S3;價錢決定容量大小)

Some of these options have sufficient capacity to allow for a backup of every file on your system, also known as a complete system backup.
