I've lost data once. That is all it took. I now have all important files on a seperate drive, non-OS.
I've got another internal drive with a backUp OS. So i can boot my machine and get the files and/or work off the secondary OS.
I burn backups of my clients folder & mail every season and put that in my fire safe. I've got an external enclosure that I drop a HD in and back everything up once a year and put that in my fire safe. Yeah, it's a bit much, but losing data sucks sucks sucks! Ialways say, you'll lose data once and then you learn your lesson.If you think about it, it's only going to get worse. From here on out your going to need to store more & more data for the rest of your life. Might as well get into a good habit now.
What they need is an external HD Enclosure that is also fireproof... ok you read that here first. Off to the patient office!

If my house was burning down I'd go for my laptop first.

I'm hoping mine isn't actually my hard drive. At first I didn't care about the actual laptop...I just wanted my information to be okay. And it turns out the problem is probably my motherboard or cpu, therefore meaning that I can either get a new laptop or a new motherboard and school is taking too much money from me that I can't buy a new laptop altogether.
