Importance of Backing Up Your Data – Part 2

Chris

The next, and probably most common, method of backing up your data is with a portable external hard drive. I use a combination of this method and the one I’ll be discussing in part 3. For this method you’ll want to get an external drive that is at least as big as your internal HDD or SSD. These types of drives use the standard USB interface and will be compatible with most systems. Just plug it in and let your computer recognize it. After that easy setup, you’ll want to do one of several things to begin backing up your data.

Chris

If you have a computer or laptop, one of the most important things you can do is setup a backup system. There are several methods to complete this task, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. We’ll discuss each in a multipart series.

CD / DVD / Blue-Ray: This is one of the oldest forms of backup. CDs can hold about 700 MB of data, DVDs 4.7 GB, and Blue-Ray 25 GB.

It’s Official! I’m an Ordained Minister

Chris

Some time ago, while I was still a young adult, I had the privilege of listening to Rev. Quinton Mills, a Gospel singer. After the production, we spoke some more in person and I believe I was seeking prayer, if memory serves. He had recalled who I was, instantly, from a letter I wrote previously that year. He and his wife were very touched by it. “You’re the one…” he said with great delight as he proceeded to tell me how it was received by them. At this time, there was something special he saw in me. Inspired by the Holy Spirit, he anointed both my hands and my head with oil, that I should do something great for the Lord. Continue reading “It’s Official! I’m an Ordained Minister” →

God can bless any donation, no matter how small. Take for example, the New Testament story of the widow’s offering. (Mark 12:41-44, Luke 21:1-4) Jesus was at the temple and witnessed many rich people give large offerings to the temple treasury. Then along came a poor widow, who put in two small copper coins, called mites. Jesus then says to the crowd that the widow put in more than all of the others, because they gave out of their wealth, but she gave all that she had to live on.

Beware of Scams

Chris

HIGH ALERT! 12-24-2016: BEWARE OF SCAMS! I recently received a suspicious phone call from another state. The person claimed that my company had sold his mother computer service coverage for $350 and wanted to know what it was for. I had no idea what he was talking about and I don’t offer subscription for repair service. Soon after the call ended I realized that he or his mother had likely been scammed and the scam artist used my company name and information.
