Back Up Your Windows PC to the Cloud w/ iDrive
You’ve heard people talk about the importance of good backups (myself included!) and about backing up your computer to “the cloud”, but if you’re not a tech expert, getting started can seem daunting. So here’s a step-by-step tutorial on getting a Win10 PC backing up to iDrive, one of the best and most flexible cloud storage options on the market.
How Can I Automatically Share Screenshots via Dropbox?
I’m in QA testing and take zillions of screen captures on test machines. Then I have to copy them over to my main computer for reports. Tedious. I understand that there’s a way in Dropbox to have screenshots automatically export? How do I set that up!

Review: MegaBackup for Mac OS X

That’s why you should already have a backup system in place. If you’re a mobile worker like me, however, you aren’t always in the office. In fact you might not even have an office.
Which is why MegaBackup is a really interesting solution with its simple user interface, cloud-based storage and unlimited space for your critical photos, video, documents, files and more.
Solve your backup hassles with iDrive
Backing up your data is a pain, whether you’re on a Mac or a PC. Sure there are software packages that can automate the backup process, but the physical drive can be expensive and a hassle to work with. And cloud backup? Those can end up being quite expensive.
Big data centers and smart tech people know how to solve the problem with network appliances, hard drives that live directly on the network instead of requiring that you plug them into your computer to do a backup.
And iDrive is offering just that, with redundant cloud backup space too, for an incredibly low price just for AskDaveTaylor readers…
