Think of all the data you have stored on your computer - family photos, financial information, an entire library of tunes. It is estimated that there are around 700 million PCs in use around the world and, according to the Computer Industry Almanac, 10 percent of them crash every day. Twenty-two percent of computer owners never backup their data, according to a study by Imation, Corp. So, what data will you lose when your computer crashes? Addresses and Phone Numbers
There goes your e-mail address book and, if your former co-worker's phone number was stored with it, you can't even call him to tell him what happened.
Resumes and Business Documents
Your entire work history and contact information for your references could be wiped out in a second. And you might need that resume when your current boss learns your computer crashed and you can't access the important client presentation you put together and saved at home.
Music and Photos
Priceless photos of children, family and friends taken with your digital camera inhabit your hard drive as does the entire soundtrack of your life. In an instant you'll be very sorry you didn't print that photo of baby's first steps.
