  1. My SSD died!

  2. I’ve been using computers for at least 7 years now, and i never had a hard drive failure. But, in my laptop i upgraded the hard drive, from 120GB to 500GB and when i tried to use the 120GB in another laptop, it said 54GB, it was partitioned correctly, tried everything. Still 54GB. But no real hard drive failures/loss of important data. :)

  3. *agreed I’ve also found the toshiba Latop drives to be pretty good :)

  4. @Mikej2156 Seagate HDD’s (new) are horrible… WD HDD’s ftw.

  5. I brought a 500gig Seashite ATA drive for my DVR, installed it and recorded loads of programs, movies and music vids.
    All was well and good for 2 weeks, I had masses of space (Since the DVR came with an 80gig), but i went to watch a movie one day on my box and it froze, then reset.
    After that it wouldnt detect the drive and the drive it’s self was making those horrible sounds. I loast weeks worth of programs in 5 seconds flat :/. I never could recover any data dispite me trying.

  6. Techstool Pro :)

  7. just dont buy maxtor they suck BUT aldablasi look up maxtor one touch 1 2 3 or what you own to fix it and ONLY install one
    had a 250 like that but it was single tripped on it and swapped the drive in it saved it but died fast as maxtor sux

    you have quite a collection of HD, im doing a research on computer forensics for my college, mostly i use opensource tools and work on Linux but the ones you mentioned cut my eye i’ll give em a try too see whats better

  10. Why wouldn’t you use testdisk/photorec ?

  11. i thought he was dead when he got the xbox 360 he died

  12. You heralding the truth about the personal importance of data. I had to learned it the hard way. I managed to destroy ALL of my personal photographs and digital created graphics during a large file immigration process to a new HD and OS. So listen up ladz, always keep more then one backup of your very most important datasets. Oh my…this is how you learn to let go.
    Great vids Al, i really like them a whole lot. By.

    your vids are great, and i always enjoy watching them, keep up the good work!

  14. hey al, thought i’d share my experience
    idk how it happened or what exactly happened
    but i was playing myst (1997) on a 2000 computer, it was working fine, when suddenly it stopped working and I had to reboot the memory, of course this was before I was tech heavy and had dial up, so I didn’t lose all that much, but it still sucked

  15. You should cluster your RAID-array. If one RAID fails, the other is still there and has your data for use and rebuilding your productive-array. Or try an iSCSI-system. Only an idea.

  16. what is the raid array 5tb hd what you use, i want know! i more space. plz tell me

  17. did you try DiskWarrior?

  18. What we’re you eating?

    oooooh, ahhhhh, FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    The porn it’s all GONE!!!!!!1
    but seriously, i hate when this happens, especiall when my mac decides to kernel panic and you lose your document for colage, adn you didn’t use time machine
    FUCK

  20. Great Vid!
    In ‘03 I lost 80 gs of data when I tried to bckup my crashy computer to an external. I came back in an hour to find both the internal & external had crashed wtf. I didn’t know much about retrieving data at that time. I actually sobbed myself to sleep. To this day I still grieve over the irreplaceable data gone for good. Since then I’ve had bckup CDs corrode on me too :( Now I keep a million copies of everything on both CDs & externals. I’m totally paranoid & the place is a mess.

    yes, sure are lucky

  23. When its £500 for 256GBs then you can see why people still use traditional hard disk drives

  24. TheGuitarMan2113 on July 28th, 2010 at 12:22 am

    I am so lucky, I have never had a hard drive fail in my life.

  25. Every computer should have ssd
