i am with you man...my laptop's 30 gigs hardrive went out on me last friday.....all the precious tunes

..meh....but yea..starting from scratch rite now

i had a horid drive error on my computer which meant that i had to reformat, i lost 12gigs or so of music and everything else. That was about a year ago, after a long time of ripping and downloading i'm at 32gigs. It definatly sucks to start from scratch.

I just got this recovery program from some dude in the hub. I'll give it a try tomorrow, because one has to scan the drive first, which takes a long time.

Again, everyone thanks for your support

That's nothing...

A couple weeks ago....I was just sitting here using my computer, until my HD started going CLICK-CLICK-CLICK....then my PC locked up....

After that, my D drive, containing over 60gb of mp3s....dead. I could list the files, but not play the files or copy them. My HD would do the whole clicking thing over again and lock up my PC

Took the HD into work to see if it was recoverable...nope

So, 60+gb worth of mp3s.... *sigh*

Thank goodness I had just about all of them backed up. What sucks is that I lost all my more recent live sets and stuff.

That's the lamest excuse ever.

Hey, I know - why not post EVERYTHING here from now on... nobody reads the other forums anyway...
