Re: [Blind-Computing] What To Do When Your Hard Drive Crashes
Hi,
In this case I'm having three external harddrives on two smaller I'm having
some files and on one big backup of my all data.
But if the harddrive isn't seen in BIOS, probably there will be something
with electronic. I had harddrive, which was making some noise, but BIOS
didn't saw it and when I get it to the company for recovering data, they
told to me, that electronic and top of the head are damaged.
With best regards,

Thanks, I did check the cords and connections. I also tried it on my old
laptop with no luck. I called tech support and they had me look for it
under
the device manager. All to no avail. The tech support guy said that if it
did not show up under the device manager that it was dead. The only cord I
can't check is the one that runs from the drive to the USB port since I
don't have another like it.
I love the idea of two external drives. I do have two but the old one only
holds 150 gb and the one that died was 500 gb. I started moving files to
the
external because my laptop memory is getting very close to full.
I do back up the really important files that are irreplaceable to flash
drives and carry them with me in my purse at all times so I am really anal
about backups. I just can't really afford to purchase another external
drive
just yet.
Hopefully, the dead one will be replaced by the company.
A few months ago I did some DVD backups and sent them home with a friend
since fire or theft would wipe out all backups with the computer I am sure.
I can't imagine a thief not taking the external drives as well as the
laptop.

I hate this for you; it seems to me, if the drive is still spinning that it
is, in fact, a computer issue or a connection issue in that the computer
doesn't see the drive. You might try another USB port or you could check
your cable; it just doesn't sound like the drive is dead. Don't give up
yet.

I don't know what good it would do to do what she said she did, but maybe some of you can shed a little light on the subject. Here is the message: I'm sorry I haven't been able to post anything to this list for a few days, but I had a major crash of an external drive, which had all of my music collection on it, and I've been working feverishly to try and recover what I can from that drive the past few days. Fortunately, I was able to recover a lot, but the drive, itself, is shot. I wanted to share a tip with you all that helped me save most of my music collection that was on that drive. We put my damaged drive in the freezer for a couple of hours and then immediately took it out and hooked it up and within minutes I was able to copy things from it onto a safer drive. I ended up having to place my drive in the freezer a couple of times, just to be able to copy the data from it, but it did work, so if you ever have a hard drive or external drive crash, and you would like to try and get the data from that drive, try putting the drive in the freezer for a few hours and then immediately put it back into your computer or hook it up to your computer, and try and get off what you can, before it totally goes. I have to admit that when we first learned of this technique, we were really skeptical, but this time it did work for me. My husband works on computers and he learned this trick as part of his tech training. Please join us on Skype Monday thru Friday at 8:00 EST for our Morning Skype Prayer Time.
