BACKUP PLAN
It is highly recommended to have a sound Backup Plan to protect against and recover from: Wear, Device Failure, Inaccessibility due to Accidental Damage, Theft, Lost, Fire, Flooding, Heat, Magnetic, or Cyber Attack.
Onsite backup storage for Desktop or Laptop:
Utilize an external backup drive to store a copy of your business and personal data. A backup drive can be a SDD, HDD, or USB thumb drive.
Be sure to maximize services that you already use and see if backup options are included.
Windows operating system on laptop and desktop has backup software to work with a backup drive.
Apple operating system on MacBook or Mac desktop has backup software to work with a backup drive.
Subscription based or third-party software packages are available to work with a backup drive on either Windows or Apple.
Cloud Based backup storage for Laptop or Desktop using one or more secure platforms for storage:
Be sure to maximize services that you already use and see if backup options are included or available to use.
Microsoft OneDrive, Apple iCloud, Google Drive, Amazon Drive, Dropbox, Acronis.
There are free and subscription-based storage options.
Determine your storage needs and be sure to utilize services that you already use that may have backup options. If more storage is needed beyond your current or proposed subscription limit, more can be purchased at reasonable rates.
Cloud Based Storage for Mobile
Android uses Google server. Ensure this is turned on and taking place.
iCloud automatically backs up your iPhone daily when iPhone is connected to power, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. One needs to ensure this is taking place.
If more storage is needed beyond your current or proposed subscription limit, more can be purchased at reasonable rates.
Contact Us if you would like help with exploring options to back up your data or would like help to setup backup solutions.
BACKUP OPTIONS FOR PHOTOS TAKEN ON MOBILE DEVICE
Taking advantage of at least one of these digital storage options, can be a good idea to safeguard your photos taken from your smartphone. Don't leave this to chance.
Microsoft OneDrive: offers 5GB free storage, after that a subscription for more storage is required. However, those with a Microsoft 365 subscription are given a generous 1TB of storage. To explore Microsoft 365 subscriptions, see our Microsoft or Google page.
Google Photos: offers free storage but sets a limit on photo size. Google Storage is used across Google Drive, Gmail and Google Photos. If you have a personal Gmail account, you are allocated 15 GB free data storage. if larger size photo storage is needed then a subscription will be required. If more storage is needed in general, go to Google Drive and touch the Get More Storage button on the bottom menu on left side of screen. From there explore options and cost.
iPhone Cloud: offer of storage of photos is different from a backup solution. It does store a copy of photos, but when one photo is deleted on a device, it is deleted from iCloud storage as well. If that is a problem, then one of the other solutions mentioned here can work in addition to iCloud or separate by itself.
Amazon Photos: offers free storage to those with an Amazon Prime subscription. If more storage is needed explore your account options for additional storage and cost.
Contact Us if you would like help with exploring options to backup your photo's or would like help to setup backup solutions.
DATA RETRIEVAL - From Desktop or Laptop Due to Damage, Loss, or Accidentally Deleted
Retrieve Data from SSD - Solid State Drive, HDD - Hard Disk Drive, or other Storage Devices using what is called Soft or Software Measures.
Accidentally Deleted data can in most cases be recovered, cost is from $50 to $150.
Data recovery from a failing SSD that can be accessed or a HDD (with hard drive platters that are able to spin) cost is from $150 to $300.
If data cannot be recovered via Software Measures from an SSD or HDD:
We can recommend an outsource service to send an SSD and HDD device to, and they will provide a quote to do the work if data can be recovered.
Most SSD and HDD that are outsourced to for recovery begin at $400 and can go up to $2000+.
It is a good idea to have a good working and accessible backup of your data to avoid extra costs for recovery. It is much easier to replace a hard drive and restore backup data to it then to recover data.
