Hard disk may crash any time, no matter whether your PC is a new one or an age-old one, leaving you frustrated of losing all your crucial files. When technology was not very much developed, business owners suffered tremendous setbacks without a proper back up. But, this era has provided you with many technologies of creating a back up of your files, creating a Disk Image is one of the “Savior” methods of having back up.
