Changes is Backup Technology
February 27, 2009 on 3:14 pm | By admin | In TechnologyThe other day we were cleaning our garage and came upon boxes and boxes of the 3.5″ floppies that I had stored data on. As I reviewed the file names it was like a trip down memory lane and I was glad that I no longer needed the information because I no longer have a computer that will read floppy disks. It did renew my belief that we need some sort of online backup storage. Home data storage technology moves so fast that it is only as good as your ability to retrieve it. I fully expect to find 5″ floppies before I am finished in the garage and wonder if anyone could recover that data.
