So How Does Your Data Get Destroyed Anyway?

You'd be surprised at how many ways your data can vanish. Did you know that a hard drive is nothing more than a round platter with the same coating on it that cassette tapes have? And to read and write the information on your hard drive, the read/write head has to touch the surface of the disk thereby wearing it out bit by bit?

So the question isn't whether or not your going to lose your data - it's when. And you can lose it in so many different ways...

* Dropped/kicked laptop or desktop computer.

* Fire, flood, hurricane, tornado, earthquake or other natural disaster.

* Viruses, trojans, and assorted malware.

* Lost or stolen computer.

* Power surge.

* Plane crash or act of terrorism.

* Drink spilled on your keyboard or computer.

* Accidental erasure.

* Computer glitch.

* Software that's incompatible with your version of the operating system.

* Kids or well meaning spouse tampering with your system.

* Hardware upgrade. Software upgrade.

* Magnetic pulse such as those produced by an X-class solar flare.

And the list goes on. In fact, a recent study found that 48 percent of small businesses had already suffered some data loss.

The main causes:

Hardware/software failure (54%)

Accidental deletion (54%)

Computer viruses (33%)

And theft (10%)
