A Simple Way to Back Up Computer Files

Keep the comments coming!

I received some feedback from my first blog and I hope this blog helps address the question of backing up your files to an external hard drive.

Let me just start by saying that backing up your file content should be done if your computer is 2 years or older – of course any time before that is good too – but it is really important if you have a computer 2 years or older.  I’ll explain how to do this with a PC and with a MAC. 

To view the file content of your external hard drive on a Windows PC.

1. Open windows explorer. Click the “Start” icon in the lower left of

your desk top screen.

2. In the “Start Search” panel – type “windows explorer” and hit enter.

This will open your windows explorer.

3. In the side bar - Select and open the “Computer” icon folder. Below the computer icon you will see all external drives and external memory cards/sticks listed.

In this example (C:) is the computer hard drive

(D:) is the computer data drive

(E:) is the DVD/CDR drive

(F:) is a removable data stick

(G:) is a Western Digital external hard drive

(H:) is a Toshiba external hard drive

4. Select the external hard drive - in this example the external hard drives have a manufacturer name and icon “My Book” and “TOSHIBA”.

5. I have selected the “My Book” external hard drive.

6. I now can see what folders and files are present on the Drive.

7. Open any folder on the external drive to view the content.

 

To view the file content of your external hard drive on a MAC

1. Open finder window by clicking on the finder icon in the MAC Dock.

The side bar helps you navigate

2. Click on the external drive icon to see what folders are available.

3. Or - search for a file using spotlight - type in a file name in the

window and finder will show you all relevant files and where they are

located.

Hope this helps.
