Data Protection Method 2: Upload files to mail server

Send email to your yahoo, Gmail or hotmail mailbox with attachment of the files to be backup up. But note the limitation to file size.
Caution: you must always visit the mail account , or the free mail services provider will freeze your account with all emails deleted and losing all attached files

Data Protection Method 1: CD or DVD backup

Using DVDR or CDR are the most common methods in data backup.
If you still don't have a CDR or DVDR, I urge you to buy one as soon as possible
After burning data to the dics, it is equally important to label the disc using marker.

Why data damage always happens

(1) accidental deletion of file
So Windows XP has a Recycle Bin on desktop
(2) computer virus
mainly come from download files or email attachments
(3) hardware failure, most frequently harddisk
maybe harddisk is the weak link in data protection
(4) water or fire damage to hardware
