File management tips
❖ Back up your files to external media on a regular basis. Label
the backup copies clearly and store them in a safe place.
As you work with data it exists in the device’s memory. This
memory is called “volatile memory” because it is only active
while the device is turned on. When you turn off the device, all
the data remaining in volatile memory is lost. To help avoid
data loss, save your work to Internal Storage or network
storage. Your work (data) will remain in internal storage to be
called up when you need it. As long as the internal storage
remains healthy, your data is relatively safe. However on
occasion, hardware failures do happen. If you experience a
hardware failure, your data could be lost. As an extra step to
help avoid data loss, back up your data. See “Backing up your
data” on page 38 for more information.
❖ Scan all new files for viruses.
This precaution is especially important for files you receive via
external media, email, or download from the Internet.
