Overview
Backing up has always been critical to businesses, but these days, it's just as important to the
home computer user. With all of your music digitally stored, as well as home videos, email,
documents, and everything else that you've discovered to be easier to store on your computer,
so much important data now resides on a hard disk. Always keep in mind that, at any given
time, your internal hard disk can fail and not be recoverable. If you do not have the data backed
up, than you lose everything. Nowadays, it's a must to have an external hard drive for backing
up your critical data. External drives also offer extra storage for those who are running low on
disk space and have no options for adding additional internal disks. Whether used for back -ups
or extra storage, external disk drives continue to emerge with larger storage capacities, lower
profiles, and lower prices per gigabyte. One such offering is the 250GB SimpleDrive Deluxe from
SimpleTech. The SimpleDrive Deluxe is a combination USB 2.0 and Firewire external disk drive.
