I'm so sad...mad....frustrated..
My computer is less than 2 years old and one of the HD's failed. :(
I was just finding my mojo and creativity again.
I'm not sure what has/hasn't been backed up completely.

Oh no.....I'm pretty sketchy with my back ups too, but I've been trying to be more consistent. I hope you haven't lost too much stuff!

:( I've been there. Sadly, more than once. I hope you haven't lost too much or you can get it back.

:( I hope you did not lose too much. I remember having to replace my mother's hard drive and her computer was barely a year old. Not fun.

I feel you. Back in 2007, my barely one-year-old Acer laptop crashed. It was the night before a major project submission. Thankfully, my tech-genius friends managed to take the HD out, made it work like an external HD, and I didn't lose my work. It was a miracle.

This happened to me 2 weeks ago. After I finally restored all the folders/files form Carbonite backup, Windows update caused some windows files corruption. I have to reinstall the windows which will cause to all my files wiped out. I will need to restore from Carbonite again :(

This is so maddening! For what we pay for these things they should not have such a high fail rate! I know the feeling, makes you sick to your stomach - I'm so sorry!

Hopefully they can recover it all. I have some high recommendations for a techy guy....
I found DVD backups of files from 2012, and I think some of 13-14 might be backed up on an EHD.
Thankfully my scrappy stuff is on an EHD...hopefully it will all be fixed before the end of the month so I can get on the challenges and finish my card. And get back to work on my photo stuff.
Thanks for all the good thoughts.
