Why should I back up my data on my computer?

Issue/Question:

Why should I back up my data?

Answer:

It is never a good time to lose all your course work, favorite pictures, or any other documents on your hard drive. All hard drives will eventually fail. We recommend backing up your data to either an external hard drive or to your Microsoft OneDrive.
