Report RSS Hard Drive corruption

Posted by on

So I just recently had one of my hard drives on my PC go corrupt on me...and it looked like a software problem that caused it. Luckily the night before I transferred my work I was working on to my USB flash drive so I have a copy of everything I need...whew! I ran a data recovery tool on the hard drive and recovered about 60GB of data on that drive, which was about how much I had on that drive. The only problem is, some of the data is corrupted still. Image files that won't load, Maya files that won't load, etc. But I remain hopeful that this is not a lost cause. Now I just need to arrange my files and all. The small amount of useless data I put onto that hard drive is still there and I haven't had any issues yet, but needless to say, I will be backing up that data before I use that hard drive again. Oh well. Back to work...
