Backed up your pc, anyone(i didn't)?

<p>Well. Where to start. Last week, my hardrive crashed. And my entire storage was gone from my pc. All-gone. It pretty much ****ed me off. Being the careful guy I am, I already had back-up cds, of my photos, videos, music, etc. But, when I opened up the CD, it turned up to half corrupt. Somehow, I was able to revive about 56% of the data(i found out cheap cds age fast, and data is lost-soon). The rest was corrupt. So, anyway, I started looking around to find a better way to do this backup. Then, I stubled upon mozy. It backs it up, online, and encrpyts it(so only you can look at it). It's lightning fast(runs when nothing is running on your comp), too It gives you 2+ gigs. You can select what you want to back-up(your my docs, music). Anyway, the link is here:
<a href="https://mozy.com/?ref=KUSM37%5B/url%5D"&gt;https://mozy.com/?ref=KUSM37&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>It would count as a referral, so you would get an additional 250 megs(from the 2 gigs), and I would too. Anyway-check it out if you want. I find it really helpful.</p>

<p>I backup my PC once in a while. I use a backup hard drive, so it's pretty reliable.</p>

<p>Yeah, I had the same experience before school ended...it ****ed me off to no end. I'm going to pick up an external hard drive before school starts ($99 for 100GB, cheaper in some places) and back everything up. I plan to always save everything twice once I get it.</p>
