Fried HD


I've had many hard drives fail over the last twenty years. Who hasn't? Bearings go bad, heads crash, controllers go bad, etc. But I've never actually had one go *POOF* with a puff of smoke.

Well not until last week anyway.

I find it strangely funny that this is a Quantum drive. The model? "Fireball." Hi-larious.

After reading this, I decided to back up my _personal_ data, which residing on a single disk. Work data is safe as it's on Sun Ray :-)
