Picking the Best Backup Approach
Presenter: Gene Barlow, User Group Relations, APCUG VTC
Backing up your hard drive on a regular basis is the most important process that all end-users must do on a regular basis to protect their computer from a crash or virus attack. Anti-virus utilities are not always completely reliable for this protection. Only a good backup can protect you 100% from a total loss of your computer system. Unfortunately, there are many different backup approaches that are promoted as being all you need to do. Most of these approaches provide only partial protection of your system. However, there is one backup approach that is the best and the one you should be using.
This presentation will describe the four most popular backup approaches used today and tell you the strengths and weaknesses of each approach. After attending this presentation, you will be able to determine what is the best backup approach you should be using. We will then describe this approach in detail so that you understand the best way to use this best backup approach. We represent Acronis and their True Image backup utility to the user group community. This product will provide you all of the popular backup approaches, but their incremental backup image approach is the best way to go. Again, how to setup and use this best approach will be covered in this presentation.
