Even considering repairing an damaged HD as an method to replace backups is an stupid thought. People who do not backup critical data are fools. There is no price tag one can put on critical data. You find some way to backup to flat compressed file format and write to an removable HD or CDROM or some free web hosting site, BUT backup your data now. There is no substitute.

I don't have enough money for redundant disks, and I would like to know what the most efficient way of making sure my data doesn't get lost, in case of a hard drive failure. The best would be for some sort of recovery if a disk goes south for the winter. On this note, what's the best way of recovering data when a disk does go bad. -- /~\ The ASCII ASCII stupid question, get a EBCDIC ANSI. \ / Ribbon Campaign John Oxley X Against HTML http://oxo.rucus.net/ / \ Email! oxo <at> rucus.ru.ac.za "Personally, I'd rather pay for my freedom than live in a bitmapped, pop-up-happy dungeon like NT." -- Thomas Scoville _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
