Backing up files
Regularly backing up your files protects you from losing data and lets you 
keep fewer files on your hard drive. Back up old files to a large capacity disk 
drive or tape drive and delete the files from your hard drive. You can use the 
software that came with your tape backup drive or your large capacity disk 
drive to back up the files.
You can also back up files by running the Backup utility that came with your 
operating system. In Windows NT, Backup copies files to a tape drive.
