Home networks can be equipped with a solid backup system for a fairly low cost. Considering how much personal and sentimental data people keep on their home computers these days, and yet how poorly most of these systems are protected and maintained, having a good backup system in place can be well worth the expense. In this project, you research inexpensive backup options.

1. Backups can be kept on external hard drives, flash drives, disks, or in the cloud. Research these options at a high level first, listing pros and cons of each type of backup.

2. Select the type of backup that you feel is most secure and reasonable for your situation, then research at least three products that would provide that service. List pros and cons, cost, and features. Which product would you choose and why?
