Press Release Summary = Serious data loss can cripple large or small companies as
well as bring great frustration to individual pc users. Statistics indicate that
billions of dollars are lost yearly in data corruption. A well thought out data
backup plan is essential---and yet is often neglected. A new website seeks to
change that by informing and educating about data recovery methods and backup

Press Release Body = Serious computer data loss is an unfortunate event that costs
billions of dollars yearly and produces untold grief and consternation. A well
thought out data backup plan is essential for computer users---and yet is often
neglected. A new website called http://www.1computer-data-recovery.com seeks to
change that by informing and educating about data recovery methods and backup
strategies.

Sandra Tobin, the owner of the site, recalls that her interest in data recovery was
sparked after a hard drive crash of her own. \"I recall discussing data recovery and
backup systems with my computer guru---only to discover that he didn\'t have a backup
plan of his own. Unfortunately, the experience of my data loss taught me that the
best disaster recovery plan is to prepare in advance to never have to use one. \"

Today\'s backup strategies and systems are vastly superior to past technologies and
devices. Memory capacity on data storage devices has increased dramatically over
the years. And options are generally easy and inexpensive. Favorite options often
include: zip drives, CDR/DVD writers, USB drives or secure online storage services.


Here are some ideas on securing your computer data and saving yourself a ton of grief:

1. Plan to back up your system on a regular schedule. Set a time aside on a weekly
basis (or more) to save data. Just as you would perform regular virus checks,
consider this another essential part of computer operation.

2. Keep your data (CD\'s, USB drives, etc) in a secure location. Some people who
recognize that their small businesses could be crippled by data loss keep their
backups with trusted family or employees. Others use online storage systems..but
even these have been proven to occasionally fail. The point is that it is best to
have several copies of your data---in different locations.

3. Consider purchasing a battery powered/surge protected power strip for your
computer system. In case of a power outage, these battery powered strips provide a
continuous source of power for a period of time, which protects your computer from
the foibles of Mother Nature...and the electric company.

Consistently implementing these ideas will serve to save the vast majority of
computer users from the dreadful \"data loss\" scenario. For more information on
