Yes, It Can Happen to You

It is the start of another beautiful day. You take another sip of coffee and go to check your email one more time before heading out on your daily commute. And there it is, staring back at you ...the dreaded "blue screen of death".

That awful nervous feeling sweeps over you as you anxiously try to get some response from your computer. Any response would be encouraging.

Are You Prepared?

1 out of 4 PCs suffer significant data loss each year. Just when you think it can’t happen to you … It Will.

Don't Wait for Disaster!

You’ve spent countless hours entering data into financial databases and spreadsheets, e-mails, filling out tax forms, and saving pictures into albums. If it were all gone tomorrow, how long would it take to replace it? Weeks? Months? Can it be replaced at all? As you come to grips with the fact that your hard drive crashed, in a panic, you realize that all of your files are gone. Your database, family pictures, e-mail, address books, the kids’ homework, years of bank statements, investment portfolio tracking, budgets, the presentation you were supposed to give this morning - ARGH!!!

Any number of events can cause your computer to lose data. Accidental file deletion is common. How many times have you accidentally overwritten a file, and lost all of that data? A power failure, computer virus, software application error, software or hardware installation can all cause data loss. In some cases, you can recover your files through windows utilities, but not always. Other, more catastrophic, events can also cause data loss – theft, fire, physical damage, or that dreaded harddrive failure. In the end, it really does not matter how or why data loss occurs - it is, however, important to be prepared when it does.

Typical Causes of Data Loss   44% - Hardware Failure Did you know: Most hard drive manufacturers only warrant their drives for 12 months?     30% - Human Error Accidental file overwrite and/or deletion.     12% - Software Corruption Programming errors, improper application termination, etc.     7% - Virus Attacks Are you fully protected from the constant introduction of new viruses?     7% - Theft, Fire, Flood, or other natural disaster

The only way to protect your valuable data files is by performing regular backups. The System Recovery Disk that comes with your computer will NOT recover your personal files. Microsoft’s System Recovery only backs up key system files, not your data files.

	Pre-paid Subscriptions SAVE $ - Select a specific Pre-paid Subscription Plan and Term to be paid in advance. Pricing is based on the total storage required + a small fee for each additional computer requiring backup. Consider an office with 50 desktop workstations* and 3 servers (where all data is kept on the servers), plus 2 office PCs and 20 mobile notebook PCs also requiring backup. The total space requirement for all of the data is 40GB. Therefore, a Pre-paid Subscription with 40GB of storage and 25 computers on an Annual Term would be: $90 for the 1st server/GB + (39 additional GBs x $25) + (2 additional servers x $25) + (2 additional PCs x $25) + (20 additional notebooks x $25) = $1,665. * The desktop workstations are not counted because their data is managed and backed-up from the server. Excess Storage Fees (apply to Pre-paid Subscriptions Only) If your storage space requirements exceed your Pre-paid Subscription Plan, you will be alerted with instructions for upgrading your plan. In addition, Small Internet Solutions averages your actual storage and applies any excess storage fees to your account each month. Excess storage fees are calculated by subtracting the subscription fee paid from the subscription plan consumed and prorating it for that month. This excess storage fee is only charged for the months where your actual usage exceeds the storage allowed by your subscription. Of course, if you do not exceed your storage plan, no additional fees are applied. Monthly Subscription Example: Subscriber has paid $9/mo for 750MB plan Actual Usage: Month1 = 1.37GB, Excess = 2GB@$12.75 - $9 Paid = $ 3.75 Quarterly Subscription Example: Subscriber has paid $21/qtr for 500MB plan Actual Usage: Month1 = 489MB, Excess = $0   Month2 = 529MB, Excess = (750MB@$24 - $21 Paid) / 3 = $1.00   Month3 = 785MB, Excess = (1GB@$27 - $21 Paid) / 3 = $2.00   Etc… Annual Subscription Example: Subscriber has paid $115/yr a 2GB plan Actual Usage: Month1 = 489MB, Excess = $0   Month2 = 2.39GB, Excess = (3GB@$140 – $115 Paid) / 12 = $2.08   Month3 = 1.98GB, Excess = $0   Etc… Subscribers who exceed their Pre-paid Storage Plan for 3 consecutive months will be notified and automatically upgraded to the next appropriate storage plan. Likewise, if your storage requirements decrease, we will automatically reduce your plan after 3 consecutive months (applicable to single user accounts only). In any event, you can always login to your account management page and instantly change your backup plan or adjust any of your preferences.
