Every year, 43% of computer users lose irreplaceable emails, documents, photos, and other files. For this reason, it is critical to backup your files. One method to backup files is by using an external hard drive. However, backing up files by using an external hard drive is susceptible to loss, damage, theft, flood, or fire.
