Common causes of data loss around Richmond

The Hayward Fault runs through the East Bay hills near Richmond, and the Bay Area as a whole faces significant earthquake risk. Shaking can knock desktops, NAS units, and drives off shelves, and a drive that falls while running can suffer serious damage. Secure equipment low and away from edges, keep drives on stable surfaces, and if a drive clicks after a fall, unplug it and leave it off.

Richmond's shoreline neighborhoods get steady fog, marine air, and salt from the Bay, which corrode connectors and circuit boards on electronics kept in garages or near open windows. Winter storms bring heavy rain and wind that can knock out power. Store backup drives indoors in closed cabinets, keep electronics out of damp garages, and put desktops on a UPS to handle outages.
