Save your work frequently.

you save it to the internal storage drive. If the network you are 
using goes down and you must restart your computer to 
reconnect, or your battery runs out of charge while you are 
working, you will lose all work since you last saved.

HINT: Some programs have an automatic save feature that can be 
activated. This feature saves your file to the internal storage drive at 
preset intervals. See your software documentation for details.

Back up your files to external media on a regular basis. Label 
the backup copies clearly and store them in a safe place.

Do not turn off the computer if a drive indicator light indicates 
a drive is active.
