1. Make a backup of anything you see in your computer systems you would be very pissed off if you lost.
2. Before you pay for assistance, (which fortunately I didn't do), use a simple air puff/blast from an air can to blow the dust out of a UBS drive.
Better yet, use the damn caps on your UBS drives. Doh.
Modify 1: Make *multiple* independent backups, stored in different physical locations.
Old saying:
There are two types of people:
1. Those who have experienced massive data loss due to hard drive failure.
2. Those who are about to.
