    aw man after my hard drive failure I just realized that I lost all my GIFs too..so sad

    I'm so sorry to hear that. What a nightmere! I'd be a wreck if that happened to me. I have so much invested on my drives. I need to back-up more than I do already.

    KaiBot, did u notice anything odd regarding your drives performance, just b4 it blew? It's a longshot question. They usually go with little warning. How old was the drive? I'm asking because these things really freak me out! :laugh:

    Kaibot,

    Depending on How it failed, and What failed, the Data is often still available. If it just won't Boot into Windows, that Drive can be mounted in another computer, and you can see if any of the Data is accessible. It's just a suggestion, but I'm often able to retrieve Data this way.

    If your Windows Logon had a Password, then much of that Data might be Protected under that same Password, making it inaccessible in another computer. It depends on How it went bad. There might be ways to get to the Data.

    Send me a PM if you want to discuss it.
