Answer 2

Well you shouldn't be worry about the data that you have stored in the online cloud. When you will format your data, your programs and files on computer/laptop will be lost but the data that you have stored in cloud will still be backed up and you will be able to access it from any other PC anytime. That's the best thing about cloud storage because your data is always safe in the 'cloud' and you can always restore it

Answer 3

Copy cloud server gives 20gb for free. You start out with 20gb of free storage if you sign up from a referral link, Just click this ---> https://copy.com?r=Wa7kcS. Also, each person you refer gets you 5gb more. That can add up fast. + 5gb for referral bonus. Can't beat that...since most of other cloud either charges $$$ or starts off too little.

Answer 5

if you already synced it, your stuff is already on another hard drive in some place so even if you do lose all your stuff on your hard drive you will still have it in a data server somewere.

Answer 6

No they won't. Just make sure all your documents are in the Cloud first.



Programs will have to be reinstalled, as you can't copy them. So Make sure you have the Original disks or the installation file.



Drivers will also have to be reinstalled.

Answer 7

If you format your laptop, your files along with the programs will be gone, but you will still have it backed up. The programs will also not be active for them to be able to sync the changes you made (in this case formatting your computer).



But just be be completely sure, back them up to another source (such as a flash drive) if you can.

Answer 8

In my opinion the best assurance is to have REDUNDANT Backups! In plain English, make certain that a second copy of all files are saved to an External Hard Drive(or Disc DVD or CD-R) AND IN THE Cloud. In this way you will know with absolute certainty if something happens to your ability access the Cloud Based Duplicates--you can always just plug in the External Hard Drive and copy files to the reformatted hard drive. The problem with solely Cloud Based storage is access lost due to a forgotten password or unpaid account or the Cloud Server going down--you would be lost.



As a previous answer stated; once you erase(format)the hard drive all files on it will be destroyed. Upon reinstalling the Operating System; System Files will be restored but Third Party Files, games, editing software and etc must be reinstalled from disc. If you're using a Linux OS this is somewhat mitigated as Linux comes with certain extra files as part of the OS(such as Spider Oak or Ubuntu One) and upon reinstalling the Operating System those extras including Drivers would be replaced. If it is Windows--then as yet another person indicated; certain Drivers will also have to be reinstalled from disc or an Online source.



Generally speaking-you have nothing to worry about if saving solely in the Cloud. I am just presenting a dire but possible "what if" scenario. In fact I take my own advice regarding this issue.



Good Luck with the reformat.
