<title>Check your backup</title>
20
<p>After you have backed up your files, you should make sure that the
21
backup was successful. If it didn't work properly, you could lose important
22
data since some files could be missing from the backup.</p>
24
<p>When you use the file manager to copy or move files, the
25
computer checks to make sure that all of the data transferred correctly.
26
However, if you are transferring data that is very important to you,
27
you may want to perform additional checks to confirm that your
28
data has been transferred properly.</p>
30
<p>You can do an extra check by looking through the copied files
31
and folders on the destination media. By checking to make sure that the files
32
and folders you transferred are actually there in the backup, you can have
33
extra confidence that the process was successful.</p>
35
<note style="tip"><p>If you find that you do regular backups of large amounts
36
of data, you may find it easier to use a dedicated backup program, such as
37
<app>Déjà Dup</app>. Such a program is more powerful and more reliable than
38
just copying and pasting files.</p></note>
