在信息超载的时代，备份数据很重要。

Whether it"s doing the washing?up or filing a tax return， unfortunately， in life there are a range of dull but important tasks that we just have to get done. And in these modern times， making sure that your most important files are backed up can be added to this list. It"s something we should all probably take more care of， before it is too late.

The problem is that digital storage doesn"t last forever. Hard disks fail， phones tumble out of our pockets， and tablets are beaten up by grandchildren. You don"t want to lose a life-time of family photos just because your laptop had an unfortunate encounter with a glass of water.

Unfortunately， there isn"t a single gadget or app that can take care of backing up for you. But what I recommend is that you should aim to have two different sorts of back?up：
one online， and one offline.

Having both is a good idea because it provides extra redundancy （多余）. You don"t want to entirely rely on the Cloud， just in case you lose access to your account， or if the pro-vider closes down.

And you don"t want to rely exclusively on offline storage because if disaster strikes， then your back?up will burn down alongside your computer and the rest of your belongings.

Online back?up is arguably the easier of the two to sort out. All you have to do is download the app for whichever service you want to use to your computer or phone. Then it"s easy to upload and download files to the Cloud for safe keeping. Most Cloud stor-age apps even have the option to automatically upload your camera roll， so when you take new photos， they"ll be sent up to the Cloud as soon as your Wi?Fi is connected.

So， it"s time to do the boring but important thing and spend the money to get your data backed up—before it is too late.
