I felt a great disturbance in the Force

[♫♫♫♫♫♫]

As if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

I fear something terrible has happened. My main hardrive has crashed. Terabytes of music could be gone. Fuuuuuuucccck

Fortunately a lot of stuff is backed up on various hard drives.

Re: I felt a great disturbance in the Force

That's good news. All the flyers and obscure sets..

Re: I felt a great disturbance in the Force

When my Mac Mini packed up last year I backed all of the important sets up on a seconded hard drive. But the more obscure stuff may be lost. I will get the HD sorted next week. I'm thinking of getting a Mac Time Capsule to use as a second back up. By the time everything is sorted I will have shelled out £1200. But there are some things you can't live without.

So much this !!

If your oven, washing machine or dish washer pack up, you can live without it. Music collection! Many pounds will be spent immediately.

Re: I felt a great disturbance in the Force

hard drives will crash- in fact you can just assume they will at some point. Best thing to do is to buy a NAS, with RAID on it, which is what I do.

Buy a Synology NAS- i have the ds214play- two HDDs in it that are mirrored to each other. One hard drive fails? I order 2 while all of my data is saved on the second hard drive. I plug in the first replacement and one its all copied over, i replace the second one. why? because the second one is bound to fail sooner or later.

that will cost you probably the same 800 pounds but much more secure as far as hard drive failures. you also get access to all your content online since the NAS provides you with an ip address/url for you to log into from anywhere with a browser and internet access.

All of my music is backed up this way.
