Why backup your data?
Backing up data regularly is one of the most important maintainence task for a computational researcher. The data can be lost accidentally (by pressing rm -r *) or by no mistake of yours (hard disk corrupted), so it is important to have a backup strategy setup. This can be done automatically as seen from the pdfs below; either through scripting or through BACKUPS tool. It is recommended you backup the data atleast once per week.
