Backing Up Developers\' Workstations
I about had a panic attack last week when one of my developers experienced what appeared to be a hard drive crash. Many objects, representing several important software projects, were checked out on that machine.
I was able to revive it with the old faithful chkdsk, but it made me realize that we are exposed in the event of a hardware failure.
What needs to be backed up on a developer workstation, and how would I restore checked-out objects to a newly-installed PC?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
