2. External HD¡¯s/Zip Drives - I find this to be the best way to store my data because external hard drives are fairly cheap and you can get a large amount of space for a good price. Simply plug in your USB or Firewire drive and copy the data onto the new drive. What¡¯s even nicer is that with an external drive, you can configure a backup using Windows to start automatically and as long as your drive stays connected (this applies to desktops that are sitting at home), you won¡¯t have to manually do anything!!! And that¡¯s really why people don¡¯t backup their data, it¡¯s usually not because people don¡¯t know, but no one ever gets around to it! So schedule a backup and you¡¯ll never have to worry about it again! I¡¯ll explain step by step how to setup a backup in Windows later.

3. Online file storage - This is quickly becoming the next best place to store your files because it¡¯s requires no extra hardware, it¡¯s conveniently accessible, and it¡¯s pretty cheap! If you don¡¯t want to buy anything or can¡¯t figure out how to connect something to your computer, then try this option! Simply create an account and there will be a button called Upload, click that and choose your files!

This site has 1GB of free storage and it¡¯s only $4.99 a month for 5GB!!! That¡¯s a lot of space!!!

AOL also has an online storage service called X-Drive and they have 5GB of storage for free!! Of course the only thing that is required for online storage is a broadband internet connection otherwise it¡¯ll take forever to upload your data.

Update: Here¡¯s a great post from lifehack.org that lists 90 online storage services you can use to upload your computer¡¯s data.

4. Service specific storage - I call this service specific storage because it refers to one particular set of data being stored in its own way that¡¯s usually better than just dumping it onto some server somewhere where you only see the file names.

For example, I use an external hard drive to store a lot of my personal documents, songs, pictures, etc, but I also use Picasa Web Albums to upload all my photos because there it acts as not only a backup, but also allows me to share photos with others, etc. I wrote another post on how to setup Web Albums and you can read it by going here:

If you have a web site or a blog, you should routinely download all of the files to your local computer as backups. Always be prepared for the worst!
