How You Can Avoid My Data Recovery NightmareWritten by John R. Barker
Many subjects related to your work might be more fun, more sexy. Who wants to talk about data backups, disaster preparedness and data recovery?I sure didn't. But, a disturbing thought kept popping into my head for days . . . "You better spend Wednesday . . . Thursday . . . Friday . . . backing up your hard drive." Did I listen to that intuition? Just a couple of weeks prior I begrudgingly sat through a presentation on disaster preparedness for small businesses. It was a great presentation, actually. I learned a lot. I knew it was a weak spot in my business. But priority number one? So back to present past time: It was 12:30 AM on Saturday night / Sunday morning. Sitting on my couch in living room, I closed lid on my laptop - core of my business and family income. Five hours later, at 5:30 AM, I woke to frantic screams of my wife. "John, kitchen is on fire! Oh my god, our house is on fire!"
