Best Storage For Backup

Where to store backups? It is not a trivial matter. The importance of reliable data backup storage can't be disclaimed, but the price can vary exceedingly. The balance is usually defined by the type of data you need to back up. While a collection of videos can be backed up to Blu-Ray discs, for example, critical office information (like fiscal accounting and other) requires the most secure, flexible and capacious storage.

The choice is not simple, as present time technologies offer us a prodigious number of storage solutions for computer backup. Each of them has its own peculiarities, advantages and disadvantages.

Backup Storage Solutions with Handy Backup

Handy Backup is a full-featured backup solution that meets all needs of both home users and small to medium businesses, and supports all imaginable backup storage media:

• CD discs. The main benefit of CD discs is their cheapness. If you need to create daily backups of relatively small volumes of data, backing up to CDs is right for you. Their main disadvantage is fragility.
• DVD, DVD DL discs. More capacious than CD, DVD disk backup storage is just as affordable and convenient. It works great to store backups of other home computer information, such as favored videos, music and pictures.
• Blu-Ray, HD DVD discs. These are the most capacious among optical drives. But like all optical media, they are brittle and can be easily broken.
• HDD. Backup to local hard drive is sufficient to secure computer data against mistaken deletion or corruption by a user. But in case of hardware breakdown or virus attack, this storage won't be effective.
• External HDD, USB, FireWire. Backing up to external drives provides a higher level of security than to local HDDs. This is a sort of "offsite backup", which implies that backups can be stored within some distance from the originals. External devices have a lot of benefits, but still are vulnerable for physical damage and local site disasters.
• Network storage. Home and small office network backup can be implemented in a form of a NAS backup, FTP and SFTP servers, NATs, and other remote backup storage solutions. They are in great favor for business backup, as they can protect data from any kind of local disasters (which is a MUST for enterprise data backup).
