Why Should You Back-Up Your Computer?

Backing up your computer files is a very important part of maintaining your PC and can save you a lot of problems if your PC ever experiences a hard drive failure.

How frequently you back up your music, images and files will depend on how often you use your PC and what you use it for.

The average home user will probably just have to do a full back-up (or a full drive image) once a week or once per month.

One rule of thumb would be if your important files change daily, back-up daily, if they change weekly, back-up weekly, and so on.
