Laugh or cry - data management

I thought i would post this little gem.

I decided to backup my main laptop as I had not done it for a while and had added programmes and had important data retained on the HDD. This was in response to a IIS members request for help and information that I had only just gave him, which prompted me to undertake the action of backing up my HDD.

I regularly use and run Norton Ghost 9, so i had a spare 120gig 3.5 drive, so I just bought a 3.5 external case for 25 dollars and was set to undertake the backup.


turned everything on, formatted the backup drive ready for the process and then initiated nortons to do the lot.

Then it happened - my laptop HDD died How close can or could you get! lost the lot

ANyway the moral to the story - - there is none, just do your best and regularly back up your data
