Inside of a Powerbook G4
So this past month I have not been on the beach. That’s next month. My hard drive died a natural (?) death and I have been slowly getting things back in order.
I have always liked the “it is not a question of if, it is a question of when” motto chanted by computer enthusiasts. After watching countless people who have been absolutely devastated from these sorts of occurences (ranging from computer theft to disk failure), I had planned for this to happen and have kept backups of all my work.
I have found a noteworthy website at http://datacent.com/hard_drive_sounds.php which lists “sad” hard drive sounds to watch out for. It’s sort of like a medical test that you can do at home.
