Best Way to Backup Documents + Pictures + Videos?
Hi
Which one of the following will you vote for backup our data?
a) Windows Backup (come with Windows 7)
b) Sync Toy 2.1
c) Manually
I have been doing backup manually to an external hard drive, partly because someone said it was the easiest and safest way. Also, I tried Windows backup but the backup files look very unfamiliar ... I mean it must have been compressed or something but it is not like other folders on our PC and can be looked at by double click etc.
I understand the advantage of backup programs is that they can pick up any file change and only save those on the external drive without you remembering what have been changed. But if I cannot see the backup files easily I will only know whether I can actually restore them when needed. Manual backup is just like 2 computers and I can be sure one of them will work....
Advice please
