Sorry for yelling there but having spent the last week going through replacing a hard drive and getting everything back together. My old one had been getting noisy and about a week ago really bad. Had it checked and a couple of sectors were bad with the prospect of death probably sooner then later. Already had a lot of stuff back upped but at least this gave me a chance to do a Windows backup and do a physical copy download of my photos and documents to my external drive.
What a mess. I'm not really a computer guy, especially hardware, so had a tech switch out the hard drive. Then it was another 4 days working with online support to get everything back into a working condition close to what it had been. Still have to do some tweaking on it and a bunch of searching and downloading to get unzip program, Pepakura, pdf readers, etc. back on it.
But I've got most (if not all) of my data files because they were backed up to an external drive. Almost thinking about also paying to get a cloud storage site also.
Anyway if you haven't backed up recently -- do it now!
