You can back up your information to an optional external hard drive, a network drive, or discs.
●
When backing up to discs, use any of the following types of discs (purchased separately): CD-R,
CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD-R, or DVD±RW. The discs you use will depend on the type of optical drive
installed in your computer.
NOTE:
DVDs store more information than CDs, so using them for backup reduces the number
of recovery discs required.
●
When backing up to discs, number each disc before inserting it into the optical drive of the computer.

Using system restore points
When you back up your system, you are creating a system restore point. A system restore point allows
you to save and name a snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point in time. You can then recover
back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent changes made to your system.
NOTE:
Recovering to an earlier restore point does not affect data files saved or e-mails created since
the last restore point.
You also can create additional restore points to provide increased protection for your system files and
settings.
When to create restore points
●
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware
●
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally
NOTE:
If you revert to a restore point and then change your mind, you can reverse the restoration.
