| Azelphur | diddledan: in order, Saturday, USB stick connector was faulty, stripped it down and plugged it in, recovered the data | 15:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | in retrospect, excavating a new pool beside the live data centre... :-P | 15:15 |
| Azelphur | still saturday, HTPC crashed, SSD wouldn't show up in the bios, put it in my HDD dock and it showed up, ddrescue got 99.99%, dd'd it to a new drive and all was well | 15:15 |
| Azelphur | still saturday, cousin turned up, "Hey this drive doesn't show up at all, it has all your cousins wedding photos on it, and they want to show it to the mum of the bride before she dies"...so no pressure then, turned out it had a windows install on it stuck in hibernate, so nothing would touch it, nuked the hibernate file, recovered all data | 15:16 |
| diddledan | wow | 15:17 |
| Azelphur | Sunday, added a new drive to my raid array, grow operation stalled during the critical section, then the machine crashed. Took me 2 days to get the data back, mdadm --assume-clean saves the day. | 15:17 |
| Azelphur | Wednesday, I added an old 1TB drive to my computer since I was out of space, it was dead (click of death) | 15:18 |
| Azelphur | and just now, I plugged my dads USB drive in, and that is click of deathing too. | 15:18 |
| Azelphur | so actually, grand total: 6. | 15:18 |
| MartijnVdS | maybe there's something in the water | 15:19 |

| Azelphur | maybe | 15:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | i did have one point of sales location destroy a few hard drives per week for a few weeks... they opened a gym next door... once i made a bubblerap pad for the pc to sit on they stopped dying. | 15:28 |
