more from that month
Am I powering down my HP ?
I wanted to make a post about the movie "**The cat in the Hat**". I turned on the TV and Netflix, Chose that cursed movie and started to suffer. At a moment I wanted write down few notes. I took my laptop on my knees and **started to write**. During that really short move, my external Hard drive disk fell. From a height of around 50cm and hit the carpet on the ground. The impact was so small I did not even tried to figure out if the disk was ok or not because for me it was totally fine. Until I wanted to pick a picture on it to send to a friend. I **plugged it** to my computer, and my day became a nightmare. There is no way to get back what's on my disk. I tried everything I know to get back the files but the problem is my computer **does not even recognize the disk**. It recognize it but in the options is shows a *0 byte size*...
When I plug it make strange noises and stops after around 1 minute. When the annoying noise stops something changes in my parameters.
I came from just nothing to "*unknown*".
This is how my external disk **looks**. It has really no problem on its outside and I already opened it and I see nothing. I don't have the knowledge or the tools to open it deeper to know *where the problem is*. **What is the biggest problem** ? I had *important files* on it. Some work. I do editing and special effects and there was files I worked on it for tens or even *hundreds of hours*. And if everything is lost, I'll need to restart everything... And I don't have any disk for now. So I need to buy another. That's why I may *powerdown* some HIVE... **And I hope I'll don't need to do**. For now I've bought 2 new HDD. Those ones :
They are once again **4TB**. And this time I have 2 to copy everything each time I have new files important that I could not lost. They have that orange thing that is basically just rubber, that makes it **chockproof**. Because I don't want to loose anything when I just move with my computer anymore This one has USB-C plugs and that will fore sure be better because the one I was using was pretty slow and caused few problems on my computer, making it to be slow too. That cost me something around **$400** and as I don't have enough money right now, I've choose a payment in three times. So that'll be around **$130** per month. Every depends id I'll find enough work in the next months and if I can recover my lost files. If I don't have enough work and can't get back my files, I'll have to power down and I'm sure you totally understand **I DON'T want to do it at all** ! Now I know I'll choose to spend more money to be able to have backups and don't loose anything. I rather have to pay **$400** and be able to work instead of **200** and loose **my files each time I work.** To be precise, on my disk there was several projects on it. Some are not really problematic because that's not totally lost because I don't have a lot of things to do again, but I also spend like 150 hours on a project and I don't have any other save of it. Here's the money I lost because of the projects I lost : **$800** for the special effects I worked more than 150hours on. **$120** for the video effects a video clip. **$180** for the editing of a clip (there *are* backups for this one but I'll need *2 weeks* to get it) **$45** for the editing of a short ad for a small business. So, I'll try to find a repairer to see if something can be made. I really don't care if I can't get back the disk but I really need the files. I don't care if I need to pay, but I really need the files. Now I'm going **to cry** and wait for my new disks to be delivered. I hope you'll see the review of "The cat in the Hat" in few days.
