Digital Home Thoughts: Clickfree Announce Wireless Backup Disk

"We all know that backing up our computer's hard drive contents is a must do operation. That said, how many you out there actually do it? The better question is how many of you aren't doing it? Not backing up your data (pictures, documents, videos, etc.) is like playing Russian roulette."

Backups are something that many of us do, and many of us don't. With the price of disks being so low there really isn't a reason not to have your personal data backed up. I would be devastated if I lost some of the photo's I have collected over the years, so I ensure that my data is stored on my PC as well as my NAS server. Sure this doesn't protect me from a fire in the house and losing everything and that is something I will rectify shortly. Clickfree have announced a device that will back up your PC's wirelessly to itself once you have configured each PC that needs to be backed up. It has a capacity of 500Gb or 1TB and this may or may not be sufficient for your needs depending on how much data you have, with larger capacities to be available in Q1 2011.
