Imagine that you are about to submit your final research paper of the semester or an article to a journal that you have spent weeks, if not months, perfecting. All of the sudden your computer dies and won’t turn back on. You have lost all of your work and have to start all over again.
This Tech Tip of the Week is all about backing up your work to prevent this from happening.
Keeping important work on the cloud, such as in GoogleDrive, OneDrive, or Box, is a great way to back up your work because the cloud can be accessed from any computer.
Saving work to an external hard drive or USB flash drive is another way to make sure your files are saved to more than one location.
