| [11-06 15:57] | [Chat] | Gambit: Yikes, there is more to that story |
| [11-06 16:43] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: you know i think harddrives are my bane |
| [11-06 16:44] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: seems another one died on me in my linux test system oh well at least that data is mostly backedup |
| [11-06 16:46] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: granted this one sat for the last 6 months and just booted to upgrade and it likes to say cant find boot dirve annoying |
| [11-06 17:30] | [Chat] | Gambit: I keep getting a warning on the hdrive for my work laptop. IT said don't worry. If that dang thing goes down when I'm on -call I will flip my desk over |
| [11-06 17:30] | [Chat] | Kill: eek! |
| [11-06 17:31] | [Chat] | Gambit: They said we can get in and disable the msg....Ummm my harddrive is 'Still at Risk!!' |
| [11-06 17:31] | [Chat] | Kill: smoke detector will stop beeping if you pull out the battery |
| [11-06 17:32] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: yeah warnings tend to be a good sign |
| [11-06 17:32] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: the one i had just would not boot aftet sitting the last 6 months |
| [11-06 17:32] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: probably dust or something got it and hwne i booted it messed it up maybe |
| [11-06 17:33] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: granted you can grab a usb live cd nowdays and ignore your hd to a point if the usb is fast enough |
| [11-06 17:33] | [Chat] | Icewolfz has afew linux live usb just in case |
| [11-06 17:33] | [Chat] | Gambit: Well I back'd my stuff up to my main machine. But we get to work remote on Firday and I tend to make sure I'm very remote so if it goes down I'll just have to take the day off |
| [11-06 17:33] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: i try and backup sicne i have bad record with harddrives |
| [11-06 17:33] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: mosly jus twanted ot update system and remove some old drives |
| [11-06 17:34] | [Chat] | Gambit: Ultimatly a backp up is good practice but I forget way to much |
| [11-06 17:36] | [Chat] | Gambit: The default response is -store it on your one drive- but that is a company resource and I want my own copy of my intellectual property thank you |
| [11-06 17:42] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: i try and have at least 2 drives now |
| [11-06 17:42] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: 1 for data 1 for os |
