Greater Danbury Backup & Recovery Services

At its core, backing up data requires you to take data from one computer and copy it to another computer or storage device. If one set of hardware fails, a version of the data still exists at the other storage location.

There are many methods to backup computer files. The most basic method involves manually copying files from your computer onto a media storage device, such as an external hard drive. This process needs to be repeated manually, on a schedule, in order to keep the data backups relevant and useful.

Data backup can also be performed automatically. You can backup automatically to a wireless storage device connected to your computer network (a file server or NAS), or even to the cloud. Google Drive is an example of basic cloud storage.
