Will one of the most important maintenance task you have to do with your computer is to back
up your data and the problem is I think still most people don’t do it on a regular basis and from
what I hear the most common reason is because it’s kind of pain in the butt to do, you have to
jump through a bunch of hoops and for a lot of people it’s too complicated. We’re going to look
up today a backup hard drive system that is basically all automatic; it’s from Click Free and its
called Click Free Automatic Backup. It’s essential a external hard drive USB, this one here is a
160 gigabytes and they have different sizes available as well but it is so simple to use.
Only you have to do is plug in the USB cable to the unit itself and works with both windows and
MAC computers and once you plug into the USB port here in the few moments up on the screen
what we’re going to see is the automatic backup message. It recognizes over 400 different file
types and these are things like spreadsheets, powerpoint documents, things like your pictures as
well and what’s happening right now in you know you can see the countdown or you can start
right away it just automatically starts going through your hard drive and taking all of those files
and putting it on to the actual hard drive unit itself. So you can see if you do nothing about
computer all you have to know is just to be able to plug this into the side of your laptop or your
desktop PC and you would start going.
You do have some customization and this going into that to show you, right now you can see all
the different types of a photos, music, email files that has going to be backing up and then let it
go through the whole thing here. I can go into the options for example, if I didn’t want it to
backup all those different file types maybe I just wanted to backup my photos, I couldn’t go in
there and actually select that. I’d go into change the backup settings and from here you can see
I’ve got all the different types of file types and I can go in the select or unselect the ones that I
want and once that’s done it will automatically do that every single time. The nice feature of this
particular software and hard drive combination is that it also asks if you want to install reminders
to actually plug this little unit in. If you do ever have a catastrophic failure the nice thing is that
all your data is on the strived and all you have to do is take it another computer or your new
computer that has been repaired, plug it in and you can get all of those files back. So remember
it’s not going to backup your programs but it’s going to back up the important stuffs, the emails,
the pictures, the music that you want to make sure that you have a copy of. And the best feature
too is that it will actually do multiple computers and the nice thing is that it does keep the most
separates so it will actually break down the files per computer and for user. If you’re looking for
the easiest and most hustle freeway of backing up your windows machine or your MAC the click
for you automatic backup is probably it.
