What a pain in the ass.
 

I lost a 200gb drive that was full of client projects and data. Thank God I still have all of the masters but what a huge undertaking it is going to be to recreate these files.

I had a virus move through my network so I backed up all the needed data files prior to formatting and re-installing everything....BUT...The drive that I backed up to somehow became corrupted.

Lots of person projects and intense PSD files on there as well. :(

uh that sucks... :(

Damn that sucks.

U tried using some software to recover it?

Did u check under the bed! JK..sorry about that hun!

Yes..Nothing there but your slippers. :Graucho

No. I have had smaller and similar problems in the past and never had any luck with those programs. I am salvaging what I can...About 17gigs worth.....Then gonna reformat it.

OH god..YOU AND YOUR SEXUAL INNUENDOS....very witty Aaron!

Since when are slippers sexual?

Get your mind out of the gutter, young lady!

I lost a server and 80 gigs or so of shit a last week. Wouldn't have been a big deal if it hadn't been my main box. Still trying to recover from that and my week off for surgery.

LMAO...you are right! I have the problem, and I assure you Mr. M, I will have it looked after.

I'm sure there is hope for you yet.

Good luck and if I can assist in any way...Feel free to call on me at any time. :glugglug

Oh gosh Aaron, thank you for being so kind to me in my time of need. You are like my knight in shining armor!

That's brutal. I back stuff up on DVD pretty regularly, but even copying everything back over into the folder structure would be a nightmare. :(

yeah I had this once, lost a lot of stuff so it showed me the value of backing up weekly wich I am doing now.

Sucks though

damn, that really sucks. sorry to hear about it.

I just posted this reminder the other day. :(

Sorry to hear that bro. Hope you can salvage some of it.

you can recover everything with a data recovery company for a few hundred bucks, if it's worth it to you.

I recovered my drive and they put it all on dvd's for me in 24 hours.

:2 cents:

bad luck mate, hope you get some of the stuff back

Yeah....I'm aware of companies like this but we are talking about a hard drive full of porn and I have heard horror stories about nosey repair people who stir up shit when they find porn on hard drives.

daily incremental backups are the only way to do things
