Let’s face it, you may have a great computer or external hard drive, but one day they’re going to wear out and you may lose your data. That’s just the nature of any piece of hardware. Your local computer repair person might be able to rescue your data, but then again, maybe not. That’s the gamble you take if you don’t backup your data.
Here are Top 4 reason’s why you shall go for next generation file management (NAS or Cloud Solutions)

1. Hard Drive Failure
Hard drives have a finite lifetime and can fail suddenly and without warning. The sudden death of a hard drive can cause the painful loss of months or years of irreplaceable files and the timing can be catastrophic – if this happens close to a work or college deadline it could be a nightmare scenario.
2. Physical Computer damage
Your files are more at risk if you use a laptop. Light and portable comes at the price of reduced durability. Laptops are sensitive and are easily damaged if dropped or have drinks spilled over them.
3. Virus Infections
Worse, the Internet harbors many potential threats to your data. Things like viruses and Trojans don’t just steal your data. In some cases, they erase it. There’s also the threat of ransomware. That’s when a hacker puts a virus on your computer that encrypts your data, making it useless.
You may have to pay a ransom in order for the hacker to unencrypt your data, with no guarantee that he or she will do so.
4. Audit, Taxes & Archives
Many, if not most businesses are required to keep business records for an extended period. This is either for tax purposes or because of various regulations. You might just need to look at what was going on a few years ago. It’s easy to assume that your computers have you covered just because they’ve got your last few years’ worth of information on them. But as you might know by now, having one copy is generally a huge mistake. Insuring that you’ve got an offsite backup of critical client information can really save you if something goes wrong locally. The regulatory commissions really don’t care that you had a data disaster. All it means to them is that you’re not compliant and they can fine you.
