Protect Your Data from Hard Drive Failures


It is a fact that all hard drives are doomed to fail ... it is only a question of when! Any experienced IT person will agree. Hard drive manufacturers now limit warrantees to one year.

Hard drives are mechanical magnetic storage devices that are extremely susceptible to failure. Head crashes, circuit board shorts, electrostatic shocks, power surges, etc. can all leave you with no other option but to send it to very expensive professionals to recover your data if you do not have a recent backup.

A hard drive crash is very sudden and usually there is nothing that you can do about it. Remember: "If the hard drive has to go to the clean room, just assume that you are going to be taken to the cleaners." Data recovery can cost thousands of dollars and there are no guarantees that they will get your data back.

With PC Data Backups, if your drive fails, just:

  • Purchase another hard drive.
  • Install basic Windows to access the Internet.
  • Download the PC Data Backups from our website.
  • Install and choose "Re-establish a previous account."
  • Restore your entire system or specific files or folders.

You can either restore specific files or folders, or you can use our advanced Easy System Restore function (included in our 10 GB System Backup and 30 GB System Backup solutions) to make your system look exactly the way it was before it crashed.

Outside of your Windows install disks, you will not need any of your original application install disks to make everything look exactly the way it was. Once you have PC Data Backups re-established, with just a few clicks of the mouse, that computer will look exactly the way it did before your hard drive crashed! There are many examples where System Restore can save the day!

If you ever experience a hard drive crash, once you have the new hard drive installed and have Internet access, simply call us 24/7 and we will personaly walk you through the restore process FREE OF CHARGE step by step. It is a very easy process and we would be more than happy to talk you through it.
