May nangyari na bang ganito sa’yo?
Biglang nag-crash ang laptop mo… at lahat ng files, thesis, or client projects — wala na. 😩
Ang sakit ‘di ba?
Pero ang totoo — madaling maiwasan ‘yan kung marunong ka gumawa ng backup drive.
Ang laptop backup drive ay parang insurance policy ng files mo.
Kung sakaling magka-problema ang system mo, may kopya ka pa rin ng lahat.
Kaya sa blog na ‘to, tuturuan kita step-by-step kung paano gumawa ng laptop backup drive, at kung anong tools ang best gamitin. 👇
🧠 Step 1: Piliin kung anong type ng backup drive ang gusto mo
May dalawang main options ka:
1️⃣ External Hard Drive (HDD)
- Mas mura, malaki storage (1TB–2TB), pero mas mabagal.
- Ideal for large but non-critical files (movies, photos, etc.).
2️⃣ Solid State Drive (SSD)
- Mas mabilis, mas matibay, at mas portable.
- Perfect for important work files, school projects, at daily backups.
👉 Pro tip: Kung gusto mo ng long-term reliability, pumunta sa SSD.
Ang DataSafe OneTouch SSD ay compact, shock-resistant, at may auto-backup software built-in.
⚙️ Step 2: I-connect ang external drive sa laptop mo
Simple lang — i-plug lang ang external drive sa USB port.
Mas maganda kung USB 3.0 or USB-C port para mabilis ang transfer.
✅ Tip:
Kapag bago ang drive mo, i-format muna ito para maayos ang file system.
- Sa Windows: Right-click → Format → Choose exFAT (para compatible sa Mac at Windows)
- Sa Mac: Use Disk Utility → Erase → exFAT format
📂 Step 3: Piliin kung ano ang gusto mong i-backup
Hindi mo kailangan i-copy lahat ng laman ng laptop mo.
Focus ka lang sa mga important files, tulad ng:
✅ Documents, photos, videos
✅ Project folders
✅ Downloads at desktop files
✅ App settings (optional)
Mas maganda kung may organized folder structure sa backup drive mo.
Halimbawa:
BACKUP_2025/
- Documents/
- Photos/
- Projects/
- Misc Files/
🔁 Step 4: Manual o Automatic Backup?
Depende sa preference mo:
🖐️ Manual Backup
- I-drag and drop mo lang mga files papunta sa backup drive.
- Simple at direct, pero kailangan mo gawin regularly.
⚡ Automatic Backup
- Gumamit ng software na nag-a-auto-sync ng files mo.
- Mas convenient — kahit makalimutan mong mag-backup, updated pa rin.
✅ Recommended Tools:
- Windows: File History or OneDrive
- Mac: Time Machine
- Third-party: EaseUS Todo Backup (free)
👉 Ang DataSafe OneTouch SSD ay may built-in auto-backup software —
isang pindot lang, automatic na nagba-backup lahat ng files mo.
🔒 Step 5: Keep your backup safe
Ang backup drive ay useless kung mawawala o masisira.
✅ I-store sa dry, safe place — wag sa direct sunlight o humid area.
✅ Huwag palaging nakasaksak sa laptop (para iwas power surge).
✅ Magkaroon ng cloud backup din as second layer (Google Drive, Dropbox).
Bonus tip:
Pwede mong i-encrypt ang drive mo para secure sa hackers o theft.
🧰 Step 6: Regular Backup Schedule
Set a reminder — weekly or bi-weekly — para siguradong updated lagi ang copy mo.
Kasi kung last year pa ang last backup mo, hindi na siya masyadong useful. 😅
