Macs Suck
Thursday, May 18, 2006
Sorry I havn't been posting a lot lately, its been crazy at work and I am just pissed off at my computer. My hard drive decided to die last nite and although I have about 95% of it backed up, its going to be a headache going thru the backup dvds to get the data. I tried running disc utility, mounting an external drive to boot off of, slaving the drive via USB and my last resort is currently in a G5 tower running an extensive repair on it. It will run over night repairing the HD and if my stars are aligned I will have a recovered drive. I am not counting on it that way if it does work I will be very excited. This is why it is very important to buy AppleCare that way if anything breaks its under warranty. I can buy a new HD for under $100 but I will see how long it takes Apple to replace my existing drive.
I don't really hate macs, hard drives fail in all types of computers but its mine this time. I always tell people to back things up, expecially digital photos, music, documents etc because when things like this happen you are not crying for days. I can picture a few things that I hadn't backed up but I can deal with it......
The moral of the story, don't rely on your internal hard drive, always have a clone of it backed up on another external HD or clone your computer onto DVD.
