yah so ... i'm a tard and so is my computer.
all of the stuff on my external hard drive Hikaru was lost by the attempt of my trying to make a backup of it incase it got lost... in the act of trying to make a backup in case they got lost, it caused them to be lost.
i was going to use kaoru to make a backup of all the most important stuff that was on Hikaru. i remember josh telling me how if i did a Raid 1 setting that then the drive makes a backup of itself in case of such things, so i decided to have kaoru have a raid 1 setting for extra precaution. In said process, the computer decides its going to put a Raid 1 setting on to both of the hard drives. The process of making it a Raid 1 setting causes the hard drives to lose all of their data, thus why i thought it smart to do it to Kaoru before i started transferring over the files...
well, the outcome was that it did it to ONLY Hikaru and NOT kaoru as i had selected.
then the Hikaru became "unpartitioned" which meant i had to re-partition it which causes it to wipe everything back to zero. All in all ... i lost all of those files and there is no way to get them back.
Thats not too bad, says you?
Well, i thought so too because files such as downloaded animes and music and software are easily replaceable... but then i remembered ... ALL OF MY ART FILES SINCE I EVER BEGAN TO SCAN MY ART WAS ON THAT HARD DRIVE!!!!!!!!!!! Its because those files were on there that i even was going through the trouble of making a back up ... which in the end causes the disaster it was meant to prevent. ;_;
i am just really frustrated at myself about all of this, and esp because i have a mid term tomorrow and on wednesday. ;_;
.................. im much better now after this rant. kinda
