Back up Tips - Or Fire Drill to avoid data recovery

Backups – The Key To Safe Computing

Here’s a data loss-prevention exercise that any organization can run immediately at little or no cost except, perhaps, to some egos. Simply ask for some critical data to be restored from backup.  Accept no excuses.  If the exercise is successful, great.  But the chances are very good that it won’t be. In fact, there are long-time IT consultants who have often asked but never seen data successfully restored from backup. 

Organizations underestimate the length and fragility of the backup chain.  First off, the data has to exist in a form that can be backed up.  The backup hardware and software must be functioning correctly, and the media must actually capture the information.  Somebody must cause the backup to be performed and the backed-up data must be, ideally, properly documented and moved to an off-site location.  Finally, the data must be restored in a timely manner, so everybody can get back to work.

The list of things that can go wrong in that chain of events is almost endless. Ironically, the biggest enemy of regular, properly executed backups is the reliability and efficiency of today’s IT systems. That dependability means that restoring data from backup is rarely necessary. Unfortunately, systems that are seldom used tend to fall into decay and that is where the danger lies.

So, if nobody takes excuses from you, you can’t accept excuses from anybody else.  If you have the responsibility for keeping systems up, running and productive, plain, old-fashioned fire drills are the only answer

External Hard drive Tips

Whatever you call them; external or portable drives or caddies, it's hard to ignore their popularity.  They are cheaper, lighter and can store more information than ever before - and they make a great backup device.  However, like any other computer component, they are subject to failure.  Follow these essential tips to ensure you keep your portable drive running smoothly, and your data intact.

* Always use the "Remove Safely", "Eject" or "Unmount" options before unplugging your device from the computer.  Most operating systems need time to 'flush' the remaining data down the cable and complete and writing activities for the file structure to remain stable.

* Beware that portable devices by their very nature are an excellent target for thieves.  If you use your portable device outside the safety of your home or office always ensure you have a backup in case of theft or loss.  Also consider using encryption if the data is highly sensitive.

* External devices due to their light and portable nature - most lacking fans and heat sinks - do not dissipate heat very well.  Keep an eye on the temperature of your device and power it down if it starts to feel too hot.  Hard drive temperature monitoring programs are available, but a low tech solution is to simply use your hand and get a feel for when you may be exceeding recommended operating temperatures.

* If your portable device requires external power (i.e. 240v power plug) ensure you use the correct plug that came from the manufacturer.  Power transformers are not all designed the same, and while a different plug might fit, if more voltage is applied than is necessary you can do electrical damage to the external casing and potentially to the hard drive itself.

* Obviously, try not to drop your device.  While some cases are quite rugged and can take a bit of a beating, dropping, knocking or bumping your device - especially while powered on - typically causes damage to the hard drive motor which will require a specialist data recovery technician and a Class 100 clean room to fix.
