Blog EntryMy HDD got friedMay 3, '08 12:41 PM
for everyone
My hard drive got fried. Damn it. It was a Samsung SP<some model number I don't remember>. The guys at the PC repair shop told my dad, who in turn told me, that the disk got fried because it was underpowered. You see, I added a graphics card that turned out to be a power hog. My feeble 300W power supply couldn't handle all the hardware's power consumption.

I had been planning to back up data and reformat it. Here's a list of data I had hoped to save but lost due to the said HDD failure:

TV series: not much of a loss. They are easily reproducible. I'll just download them again through bittorrent. Or I'll just copy my blockmate's TV series archive. He watches the same shows as I do.

ebooks such as Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: lost forever. Oh my. Luckily, I was able to copy to a CD Neil Gaiman's Sandman series I downloaded.

Frets on Fire Guitar Hero add on: Oh well. I am now able to play Guitar Hero on PC anyway because of the new graphics card. Hehe

school files: Damn it! Now, digital copies of my A papers are gone. Oh wait. I don't have A papers. Hehe. Seriously, I probably have printed copies of papers and some digital copies stored in my e-mailboxes.

pictures: DAMN! My precious pictures are gone. Hopefully, there are copies stored in the other PC.
