Good IT practice suggests that you back up your data and store the backed-up data in a secure place, called vaulting, which assumes that an organization's computer files are copied regularly on some type of removable medium, such as magnetic tape, CD or hard disk, and then delivered to an off-site location for safekeeping. The timing and extent of backups can vary (from continuous real time to once a day or once a week), depending on the organization's needs.

For storage products: Under various circumstances, such as damage from extreme conditions like floods, power fluctuations, damage caused during the installation of the drive, damage caused by improper or improperly used packaging, or physical misuse or abuse, the data on a disk drive may be inaccessible through normal operations.
