Decided on RAID 1 - SSDs or HDDs?

<< < (3/4) > >>

Renegade:
I figure a day or 2 of down time and buying a couple new drives is a lot cheaper than being a day short of a backup with 90% of the work done for a client since the last backup, and having to go hat in hand, begging for time and forgiveness...

Anyways, last check about to go -- UBCD4Win v.360 finished downloading...

Renegade:
Oh -- I got the Seagate tools running again, but it will now only detect my external drives, and not my internal system drive, which is the one with the problem. Weird.

Renegade:
Soooo...

Better safe than sorry.

Here's my methodology:


* Drink 3 beer
* Crack open case,
* Continue drinking
* Swap out drives
* Continue drinking
By beer #6 I'm finally at the boot screen to install Win 7.

But that's all I have done so far.

The next steps are:


* Break open a bottle of frozen vodka
* Continue the torture...
I hope that is useful for someone, or entertaining. Either or is fine by me. :P

Oh... and intermittently post at DC.

Thread has been eerily quiet for a while now, hasn't it. Hope he skipped the spill vodka in computer, and jump out window steps.
