DataBackup

Backup software comes in two forms

  1. Software that will copy the contents of a folder of your choice to a new location of your choice
  2. Software that will make copies of your whole system in case of a complete system failure

Personally I recommend option one. Most computer systems today either come with a set of disks (CD or DVD) to restore the computer to factory specs or allow you to create this set of disks. Therefore if you keep track of the documents that you create and any additional software that you install, you will always be able to restore your system.
