In this video, we dive into the critical topic of backing up your files. We'll talk about the 3-2-1 backup rule—a tried-and-true method recommended in the IT world for safeguarding your data. I'll share my own experience with data loss and how a systematic approach to backups can offer peace of mind. I talk about the different types of storage options, physical and cloud-based, and I'll provides recommendations for tools and services he personally trusts.
