Since the computer was up and running, no data was lost, but hey, you never know! If push comes to shove, we’d much rather have a 3-week-old version of our data than none at all (addresses! translation memories! termbases! e-mails! accounting!). What might seem like an unnecessary precaution came in really handy the other day because the external hard drive we use for daily backups fell to the floor and died (RIP, dear hard-working hard drive). It addition to that, Tom, our web guru, does another backup in larger intervals (in Dagy’s case, every 3 weeks) using another external hard drive, which he keeps at his downtown office.

For the daily backup, we use one of the smaller hard drives in combination with the free backup tool EzBackitup. 500 GB 3.5’’ external hard drives (the large ones with power supply) cost approximately EUR 60 and 320 GB/2.5’’ (the small ones without power supply) cost around EUR 80. For that purpose, we use an external hard drive. We do daily backups of our business data at 11:00 p.m. So we better take really good care of it. Other than the information in our heads, our data is the most valuable asset we have. Still, one can never emphasize enough how important data security is in our business. Yes, we know: you’ve probably heard this a gazillion times. Spain's Prime Minister: It Starts with an "F".
