OT- Please remember to make backups..My Experience........
28 Mar 2006, 17:49Hello friends...
I know this is off topic, but please remember to make backups of your songs on your PC hard drives.
I almost lost two years worth of work, and over 2000 family pictures and videos this weekend. My son's Hard drive crashed this weekend after getting the dreaded "CLIK OF DEATH".
So that triggered me to make a backup of my stuff. Well, I made over 5 complete DVD backups of all my stuff. Just when I had finished, I decided to do a full defragment of my hard disk. Well, to make the story short, my hard disk died in the middle of the defrag. It was a Western Digital 120 gig hard disk.
I could not beleive it! But I was very thankful to God that I had done the Backup just before my HD died. Amazing thing, is that both disks that died that day were Western Digitals.
Fortunately, I still had my main disk, a 120 gig Maxtor still working.
Its weird cause I trusted the WD more than the Maxtor, thats why I had it as the Storage disk, and Music DISK. Oh boy, I am so happy that I was able to save all those precious memories.
So please, if you haven't done so, do a backup today of all your precious stuff. Pictures, songs, what ever is dear to you. Once the disk dies, its all over.
Warmest regards,
Musikman
