Does an apple IPAD do everything a laptop does?
Computer backup? External hard drive or online storage?
I have 2 laptops that I want to back up but are torn between buying an external hard drive (what size 500 gb or 2 tb?) or subscribe to an online service such as Carbonite or Mozy (Safety? Separate accounts for each laptop?). Can someone with experience & an opinion help me? I can buy a 500 gb from TigerDirect for about the same price these cloud services charge for 1 year storage. I travel a lot so instant access is important. Any suggestions?
Which os virtualization programs support software virtualization?
What size external hard drive should I get?
I finally decided to get an external hard drive for my Windows 7 laptop, but I’m not sure what size I should get. I’m in ‘my computer’ looking at the C: hard disk drive space, and it’s telling me I have 325 free of 451 GB… does this include my main folder where I keep all my pictures, videos, and documents? or is that only the hard drive itself?
When I get an external hard drive, I want to back up not only my main folder where I keep everything, but my entire operating system as well. Would a 500 GB be enough? Or should I get it bigger to make space for my main folder?
Additional question.. I currently have Mozy, but I feel like it is a waste of money, and I can’t be positive that it is ACTUALLY storing my files safely, that’s why I’m switching to a hard drive. Mozy is telling me that I haven’t paid to keep the subscription (I stopped like a year ago!) yet it still is daily backing up my files… Is it actually saving my files? It’s a bit confusing since I stopped paying for it..
Thanks!
