Managing hard drive space Backing up files Help and Support For more information about backing up files, click Start, then click Help and Support. Type the keyword saving files in the Search box, then click the arrow. Backing up files and removing them from the hard drive frees space for new files on the hard drive. Backing up also protects you from losing important information if the hard drive fails or you accidentally delete files. You should back up your files regularly to a writable CD or DVD (if you have a recordable drive) or to diskettes (if you have a diskette drive). Use a backup device, such as a recordable drive, to do a complete hard drive backup. If you do not have a high-capacity backup device and you want to purchase one, visit the Accessories Store at accessories.gateway.com.
