Why back up?  Backups are easy.  The potential for data loss due to hardware failure in your computer certainly exists.  Although a hard drive can be expected to last 3 years or more, some develop problems sooner, sometimes a lot sooner.  Various software, including your operating system, also have a habit of going south when they feel like it.  Backups are automatic once the client is installed on your machine, and installing the client takes no more than 10 minutes.  The CRC can back up all Windows clients and servers through XP, Mac clients and servers through OS X and Linux/Unix workstations and servers.

The CRC strives to back up all clients on a nightly basis 5 nights a week Mon-Fri.  At the beginning of each month, we start a new backup set of all our clients. Each succeeding day (Mon-Fri), any files that were created or modified will be backed up, also known as an incremental backup.   To be backed up, your computer must be left on.  We will maintain an archive of backups for 3 months.   There is a nominal monthly charge for this backup service.

Software:
Backup client software for PC's and Mac's is available for download at our software site, however you should contact us in advance to coordinate the installation and to select the correct version.  Contact CRC to backup PC or Mac systems, Dave Covey for Linux/Unix systems.
