Do you have all of your business files saved on your personal PC or company PC only?

When it comes to storing your important docs and info, it's probably not the best idea to store that info on a private or personal computer. I think all business related things should be kept to a business PC or private one that is only used for your business. I just don't like the idea of using a personal PC for my work. What about you though?

For safety and security purposes, I actually have those files saved on both company PC and also my personal computer in case something happens at work and those files are tampered with, then I'll have to bring the backup that I have saved on my personal computer.

May be convenient to have some business files on a personal PC for offline access or convenience, it is generally advisable to store the majority of your business files on a dedicated company PC or server to ensure data security, backup, collaboration, and compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

A friend of mine who works in a tech company had a lot on his plate last month when they suffered a server attack. They lost so much data that it took them more than 5 weeks to fix most of it. They had to hire third party companies to assist them. This is all because they didn't back up data outside their company's server.

I have three different computers. I have a work desktop, a home desktop, and a laptop for the in between. Most of my personal work and things I focus on in my own time is on my personal home computer. My laptop has a bit of both and my work computer is just for work.

It would actually be very good for you to have a means of backing up everything that you do on your work computer on another drive so that in any situation whereby there is a corruption to your work computer, you will have something to recover your files.

I use my personal computer for business also. Therefore, my personal files and business files are on the same device. However, I have partitioned my disk and I use different drives for different kinds for files.
