Happy "World Backup Day"! I figured I'd post this since so many people don't do backups and we have so many that ultimately lose their data because of improper or non-existent backups. I think we've had 2 or 3 in the last 2 weeks!

Here's your reminder that you should check your backups and make sure they are running smoothly and are complete.

Remember everyone....

RAID ≠ Backup

Don't do what this guy does.... It's scary that an IT website has people that actually say that and probably believe it is a true backup. I really hope his comment is tongue in cheek.

Better: RAID is protection against hardware failure. Backups are protection from everything else.
