All drives will eventually fail. This statistic is not shocking, however the fact that only 34% of companies test their backups, and of those who do, 77% have found failures is astonishing. Having a disaster recovery plan is not something to take lightly, 60% of companies that lose their data will go out of business within 6 months of the disaster. People often believe that this will never happen to them or their business. The fact is this is something that can happen to anyone, the question you have to ask yourself is are you prepared?

Hardware or system malfunction accounts for 78% of all data loss.
