Hi Natasha:
It is not enough for something to be generated in the usual and ordinary course of business to be a record. It has also to be created for the purpose of the activity in which it participates and kept in relation to such activity. Backups are created for disaster recovery only. There are other theoretical reasons why backup are not records, but in the North America juridical system this trumps all.
