Heya peoples,

Ive just had a crappy experience. My hard drive crapped itself & I lost a heap of music files. Luckily, most of my recent stuff has been saved onto my external harddrive so the loss isnt that great. But i have lost about 5 songs that I produced. I couldnt tell you how many wave files I had saved for the productions; a hundred or so. On a positive note; the songs that I lost were old & I had grown detached from them, not liking them much anymore. I did them on the ole Acid Pro. All the songs I produce now are mixed using Sonar, which is heaps better. Saving them onto the external is great for mobility for when I take my stuff over to my brothers house for review & reworking.

Anyways, it was only the day before my harddrived died that I had installed my new DVD Burner that my girlfriend had bought me for Xmas. The plan was to Burn all my Project folders/files on DVDs as backups. So much for that plan!!!! I guess this is a warning to those that haven't backed up their files. Dont put your trust into your harddrive because it may one day die in the ass! Always backup your stuff!!

-Hunting By Breeze
-Hudson
-Spinning Atoms
-Gee Wizz
