How can I prevent disasters likes data loss?

Unfortunately, in the land of computers, nothing is ever guaranteed. Even if you take expert care of your machine, you will likely run into problems someday. Luckily, you can take steps to make sure a hard drive malfunction or something of similar magnitude is not the end of the world:

  • Backup, backup, backup your data. We cannot stress this enough! CUS can provide you with an external hard drive and full access to a program called SuperDuper, which can make an exact copy of your computer's contents every night; please inquire with CUS. Keep copies of your important documents and data in multiple locations: the home server, email, USB thumbdrive, external hard drive, CDs/DVDs, etc. Also see our backup tips.
  • Keep your computer safe from viruses and spyware. Be wary of opening email attachments and downloading other items from the Internet even if you know and trust the source. For detailed information, see our Protecting Your Computer from Attack page.
  • Do not leave your computer unattended. Laptops have been stolen from the Library and other public areas on campus. Use a lock (also provided by CUS) if you need to be away from your computer for a short period. Please don't rely on a cable lock overnight; if not taking it home, put your laptop in a locked cabinet or drawer when you leave for the day. For more information, also see our Protection from Theft page.

For more information, please refer to our safe computing section. And, as always, if you have specific questions or encounter a disaster, never hesitate us to contact us by coming to the Help Desk, calling x7525, or emailing cus@reed.edu. Good luck!
