The backing up of your computer is probably the easiest task we should get around to yet never do. Having both an on-site and offsite backup of your important documents, videos, photos, music and data keeps you from having to rebuild from scratch when your hard drive goes BANG! in the middle of your most important piece of work.

If you are one of those people (like me) who are in need of a very reputable and ultimately reliable backup solution then we have something right up your street!

What’s This All About Then?!

WillINeedIt.com is pleased to announce an awesome giveaway courtesy of the guys at Mozy, a free years subscription to MozyHome Online Backup which has no limits on what you can backup! This means that all of your treasured data and media can be automatically synced via your internet connection to a super-secure off-site backup, that will simply stay there until you need it!

Mozy believe:

• You shouldn’t have to think about backup.
  Backup should be set up once, and then work automatically.
• Your files should be encrypted.
  Your backup files should be encrypted and stored in a secure, remote location that’s only accessible to you — from anywhere.
• Your backups should be smart.
  Your backup system should be smart enough to only back up data that’s not already been backed up, only back up parts of a file that have changed, and be able to back up open and locked files.

All that’s required to use Mozy is for you to register an account and download their special software that will allow you to choose what you wish to backup. The files you choose are encrypted so no third party can intercept them and they will also be updated incrementally so you aren’t having to re-upload the same files again and again, just the one’s that have either be added, edited or removed.

It’s a simple, effective service that’s so reliable, we wanted you to be able to find out just how reliable it is. We are going to give away three subscriptions to Mozy Home Unlimited, enabling you to be able to forget about losing all your data should the worst happen.
