To prevent yourself against a viral threat is to install an Anti-virus program on your system and scan it regularly to keep yourself update whether your system is infected.

Hardware or System Problems - When powering on your computer you might hear clicking, buzzing, scrapping and ratting sounds. These are the noises that come when the motor, electronic boards or magnetic platters get damaged due to any electric failure or a head crash. Alternately, the drive might also refuse to spin and results in inaccessible data.

Human Error - Accidental deletion and overwriting is one of the main reason of data loss that more often happens. This event occurs when you overwrite any existing data or emptied the recycle bin. This is the data loss event of human error category.

Software Malfunction - Data can also be lost due to some technical defect of failure of some software running on the computer.

Ways to Prevent Data Loss
Here I will recommend you some major points to prevent against Data Loss:

Back-up important data regularly - Using CDs or even an external USB hard drive for data storage can potentially save you from having to hire a data recovery service to perform hard drive data recovery on your hard drive or RAID server.

Install some sort of Anti-Virus – Viruses infects your computer by reading an infected e-mail, by sharing an infected file and by visiting websites that take advantage of security flaws to compromise and destroy your data.

Placement of your computer system - Keep your computer system in safe, dry and dust free area to prevent physical damage to the computers.

Use power surge protectors - A power surge is one of the most common occurrences that can damage your data and potentially cause a hard drive failure.
