In information technology, backup refers to making copies of data so that these additional copies may be used to restore the original after a data loss event. These additional copies are typically called "backups." Backups are useful primarily for two purposes. The first is to restore a state after a disaster (called disaster recovery). The second is to restore a few files after they have been accidentally deleted or corrupted. Data loss is also very common. 66% of internet users have suffered from serious data loss.
Different people have different backup requirements, for example, some people want to copy files from one hard disk to other one, while other people want to make a disk image. Choosing an appropriate backup solution will help you backup faster and more easily.
