I've just had a hard disk crash today. The second in just over a year. (At least this time I didn't have a paper due just a few hours later.) Luckily I have hard copies of everything that's due for my French class and back ups of most other vital things. Except I'll lose quite a bit of what I've downloaded and all the music that's not on my iPod.
C'est la vie!
Addendum - 2007/6/11
I've now resurrected the internal hard disk. Although I no longer trust it, I'll continue to boot off that volume but will keep all my important things on the 250GB external disk I've bought (only US$80, not bad).
The good news is that I had backed up 99% of a homework task for my French class that I thought I had lost as well as 3/4 of a translation I was working on.

Good to see that you're being philosophical about it!
V. annoying, I can imagine. Grr.
Well of course I'm always philosophical. The question is really what sort of philosophy. I'm trying to be Stoic at the moment. But sometimes Epicureanism gets the better of me! (I have to keep reminding myself that I'm in America and that the small is not really all that small, it just looks small compared to their extra large.)
I'm really into the philosophy of Stoicism. Except people often mistake it for superciliousness and arrogance.
Maybe I'm not doing it properly.
