World Backup Day started with a single post on an online forum by a user who wished someone had reminded them how important it is to back up data. Since the campaign started back in 2011, World Backup Day has greatly expanded to a point where it is now recognized by many national holiday websites. Like many others out there, B&H is taking the pledge to educate guests and remind everyone to back up their essential data.
We have several guides about all the different types of storage, with topics revolving around internal storage, external storage, mass storage, and the importance of backing up your data across all formats. We also include guides on the best storage drives for backing up data, a glossary of important terms, and a whole lot more. When you are ready, take the pledge with us and protect your data on World Backup Day on March 31.
