Many years ago after a major computer crash, I said I would never let my guard down again, but I've become lax about backing up my data. I guess with all the power outages with the snow and ice, I must have had a power surge. Despite using a surge protector, I came home to a dead computer today. It's like waking up from a 7 year coma not know who you are, where you've been or how you got there.
I purchased a home computer in 2007 and have not had one second of trouble. Not the first blue screen of death or anything. My life is on this thing, pictures from 2 years in Iraq and traveling, family pictures, tons of documents and every single note I've made with my homebrewing experience - as short as it is. I have 3 batches now that I don't have my data for. I'm hoping I can go back and find threads where I've discussed different aspects of what I was brewing to get my numbers.
If I can manage to salvage two terabites of pictures and data, I will never let my guard down again.
