Loryn, take the opportunity to set yourself with a better system going forward.

E-mail should all go to Gmail or Google Apps. Autoforward if necessary.

Amazon S3 servers as an example cost 14 cents per GB of storage, so having all your docs, family photos and other important stuff is like $1 a month away from being a lot more safe. Their servers have RAID, redundant backups, 24/7 staffing, and they'll literally charge you $0.84 a month if that's what you're using.

Nowadays if I lose my OS drive, I'm back up and running within an hour or two and haven't lost much of anything, just settings.
