Since computer networking technology develops at a rapid speed, significance of information security becomes quite obvious. However, as one of important parts in information security, data backup is always neglected. In the process of network running and maintenance, many unpredictable factors such as natural disaster, hardware damage, mistaken operation, and virus attack may cause important data to be lost. If users haven't backed up important data timely, they may suffer irretrievable economic losses or even spiritual losses. For instance, Defense mathematical research center of University of Wisconsin suffered bomb attack, so data collected during more than 20 years were destroyed completely; the 911 event made data of more than 800 companies' or institutions' lost, but the financial magnate Morgan Stanley (one of victims) pronounced global sales department could work normally the next day. The main reason is that this corporation is used to backing up important data timely. Thus it can be seen, backing up important data is quite significant. Well, how can we accomplish data backup easily and safely?
How to back up data?
Talking about backing up data, many users think of Windows built-in 2 shortcut functions namely "Copy" and "Paste" at first. For common users, they only need to back up few data most of the time, so this method can be chosen. But for enterprises and organizations, this is a time-wasting and unsafe method, because users in these institutions often need to perform partition copy or even hard drive copy. If they want to accomplish data backup under this kind of situation easily and safely, they had better choose professional drive copy software. Our drive copy software offers 2 modules to copy partition and copy hard drive respectively. In the process of partition copy or hard drive copy, this software will provide multiple data protecting measures to furthest protect data, like power-off protection, preview effect, and detailed operating prompts. If users want to further understand the drive copy software, let's see an example.
Copy hard drive by using professional drive copy software
First of all, we should download the drive copy software from its official website namely http://www.minitool-drivecopy.com. Then, install it to computer. After running it, we can see the following interface:
This screenshot is the main interface of the professional drive copy software. Here, we can see 2 modules for data backup, namely "Disk to Disk" and "Partition to Partition". Since we need to make hard drive copy, we should select "Disk to Disk" ("Partition to Partition" is used to copy partition"). Detailed steps to copy hard drive by using drive copy software are as follows:
1. Select the functional module specially designed for hard drive copy to enter the next interface.
2. Select the hard drive which needs copying.
3. Select the hard drive which will be used to store copy.
4. Choose a copying mode to perform hard drive copy.
5. Click "Finish" button to perform operations.
Through the above 5 steps, we copy hard drive by using drive copy software consummately. Operations are so simple, aren't they?
