Personal Computer File Backup

If you rarely perform file backups or use a flash drive or other external device to back up important files on your personal computer, you run the risk of losing your files. Duke has partnered with Iron Mountain, an industry leader in information protection and data storage, to provide the Duke community with Connected®, a PC file backup and recovery solution. Duke faculty, staff and students may subscribe at a discounted rate.
