A backup utility provides an extra copy of your data in case of accidental loss because of a hardware or media failure. This is done by creating a duplicate copy of the data on your hard drive on another storage device, such as a floppy disk, a tape drive, or another hard drive. In the event that the original data on your hard drive is accidentally erased or overwritten, or becomes inaccessible because of a hard drive malfunction, you can easily restore your data from the backed up copy. Backup utilities allow you to back up all the files on your notebook or select specific files and folders. For a partial backup of selected files or folders, save to floppy disks. For a complete hard drive backup, use backup devices such as tape drives, external hard drives, or other high-capacity backup devices. 8-2 Users Guide

Using Backup Devices
You should back up your files regularly with a backup utility.
A backup utility provides an extra copy of your data in case of
accidental loss because of a hardware or media failure. This is
done by creating a duplicate copy of the data on your hard drive
on another storage device, such as a floppy disk, a tape drive, or
another hard drive. In the event that the original data on your hard
drive is accidentally erased or overwritten, or becomes
inaccessible because of a hard drive malfunction, you can easily
restore your data from the backed up copy.
Backup utilities allow you to back up all the files on your
notebook or select specific files and folders. For a partial backup
of selected files or folders, save to floppy disks. For a complete
hard drive backup, use backup devices such as tape drives,
external hard drives, or other high-capacity backup devices.
