Notes
Archive and Back Up Data
Develop a strategy that addresses the following data management issues for the
instrument.
Check Disk
Space Regularly
If you perform real-time experiments on your system, or collect real-time data for
genotyping experiments, check the available space on your hard drive weekly. When the
hard drive is within 20% of maximum capacity, transfer the older data to a backup
storage device.
Archive Older
Experiments
Conserve space on the computer hard drive by using a data compression utility to archive
unused or older experiments. Several commercially available compression utilities are
available, such as the PKZIP and ARC archive formats common to the Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating system.
Back Up
Experiments
Regularly
Back up the experiments generated by your system to:
Protect against potential data loss of data caused by an unforeseen failure of the
computer or its hard drive(s).
Conserve space on the hard drive and to optimize performance, if you remove old
data after backing up.
See “Select Protective Hardware and Software” on page 7 for more information on
backup storage devices.
