Too many people today don't backup their files. And of those that do, many don't do it well. An easy way to remember a "safe" way to backup your data is with the "3-2-1 Backup Rule" which goes like this:
- Keep 3 copies of any important files (your primary/working copy counts as one)
- Store your files on 2 different media types (Example: Hard drive and in the Cloud)
- Always have 1 copy off site
