Backup Your Data

If you have a small number of files, you can back them up to a regular floppy disk. Later, you may want to start using a larger storage medium, such as a Zip drive or Jaz drive.

It is also important to keep copies of the programs you purchase for your computer. If Ariam had also thrown away his original copy of Microsoft Word, then he would have had to buy the software again when his hard drive died.
