Avoid Backup Media Failure

Backup media is notoriously failure-prone. PC Data Backups is far more reliable.

Whether you are backing up to tape, DVD, CD, Jaz, Zip or floppy drive, you are risking data loss due to media degradation.

Over time, both magnetic and optical media begin to lose their ability to keep error-free data. Although media vendors advertise average lifetimes of years and hundreds of rewrites, the actual lifetimes of these media are often less than a year.

• Backup media are vulnerable to damage by the environment (heat, sunlight, humidity, liquids, dust) and human mishandling (scratching, bending and dropping). They can also be easily lost or stolen.
• Magnetic backup media can also be damaged by electromagnetic fields emitted by televisions, monitors, speakers and other electronic devices.

PC Data Backups provides a better solution: safe, cost-effective offsite backups at mirrored data centers with state-of-the-art archiving technology.
