for some reason my 2 120gig wd 8meg catch drives decided to die on me.. i am so confused. they were both full. :(
 
wait..... are you confused as to WHY they died, or as to the fact that they died when they were full? Either way, one motto kinda pops into mind.

"Expect the unexpected"
 
1) 120 + 120 = 240

2) Backup

*edit: It sucks losing that much pr0n, doesn't it? :rolleyes:
 
im just bitching. i am confused why they died. but somehow they are still under warranty so i wil send them off.

only thing i am really upset about losing is about 300 megs of pictures.
sigh oh well lesson learned backup!
 
both of em die at the same time?

were they on the same power channel? same ide chain?
 
both within 2 days..
on was on a promise controller. the other was on a ide.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
