AnsweredBapu's (and others) random thoughts for the day.

All my downloaded sample libraries are on my NAS (Raid 0).
 

Why would you run a NAS on RAID 0?

It's been ages since I've backed-up!  I used to do it religiously, but I've been distracted lately.  I'm still planning on upgrading my surfing PC and my DAW, so I was planning to do a transfer to the new machine and keep the old drive as back-up.  I may have to rethink that.

I always take it as a "sign" when a mate has a component failure that I need to be all over it for my systems.

happy to be of help!
So I went out and bought a 20 gigawatt internal thingy and I'm going stick it in my wotsit tonight.
Wish me luck - as you can tell, I'm not technically gifted

With 20 Gigawatts, you should be easily able to..........to..........to run most of NY and NJ.
(did you got an ssd as well?)

Somehow, I get the feeling there's a subliminal mesage in that last post and we're not even close talking about computers.......I'd wish you luck tonight, but it looks like you're already well set.

I literally just got the new hard drive in yesterday (FINALLY!!!).  I've got a lot of work still trying to figure out what I've lost...

SSD or the normal HD?
I just love my SSD (OS/Software) and how snappy/quick it is......my next SSD purchase will be for my samples drive (if the 1-3 TB drives come down in price).
 
 

I've got an SSD for one of my boot drives, but the drive that slowly corrupted itself (thereby causing me to backup corrupted files as well) was a 3TB drive.  I can't afford to buy a new drive yet so I had to copy and move files all over the place (most at USB 2 speeds) so some of the terabytes took 24-30 hours each to copy... 
 
Heck, just running chkdsk on the bad disk took over 7.5 hours!

Sheeesh, he's not hard of hearing and didn't need to say it twice........or is that the stereo fx working it's charm?
 
Good morning lads!!

Julibee's new album is out, itunes and other sites.
She said she couldn't have done it without you guys.

I must be invisible invincible!

mornin folks.
So it appears that recovering data from a pair of RAID 0 hard drives is pretty bloody tricky.
Guess what went tits up on me?

I've never done a Raid array setup......looks a bit complex....
(I'm afraid to ask what went "tits up" on you )

RAID 0 isn't really "RAID" as there's no Redundancy (the "R" in RAID).
 
It gives you potentially better performance by splitting the I/O across multiple drives, but if one of the drives goes bad there's no graceful way to recover from it. 
 

I'm not very graceful at the best of times drexfx1.
If I attempt any sort of retrieval, I need to have both drives plugged in right?

I'm not sure. Meebee someone else here can answer.

thanks for your sympathy Baps 
- I'm soooo pissed off with myself for not backing up

At the very best, you've motivated everyone to do backups after inspiring Baps to open up a thread on it rooooiiiight?
(I know, doesn't quite help your situ though...)

He's just annoyed that NagBap 2.4 might have been on that drive. 
Yes, you need both of the drives to try and get anything off of them.  It would be like having only the odd number pages of sheet music for a song.  It ain't gonna work.  I can think of a few songs where that may be an improvement. 

If Dirk wears white socks, is bapu one of the high heeled boys?

Yup I give low sparks.

If at all.

No need to worry!  NagBap automatically backs itself up and creates emergency clones.  It hides in inconspi-cuos files, in house plants, under floorboards and behind that unidentifiable substance in your fridge.

Happy Friday ALL!!

We've got one of our damn smoke detectors with a low battery...  You'd think it would be easier to tell which one it is rather than having to wait for the chirp every minute!  For my sanity, I hope I figure out which one it is soon or I may take a hammer to all of 'em!

My late Mother was a Page. She'll be turning in her grave at the thought her bouy posting in this fred. I suppose if she had kept her maiden name after she got married I'd have been known as Pagebouy instead.

A *Chirp!* epilogue.
 
After much madness and searching, it turned out that a carbon monoxide detector that was still packed(!) was the real cause of the chirp.  Had us sitting and listening while, every 45 seconds, it gave off it's clue to its whereabouts.  We finally found it and almost destroyed the mo-fo (before saner heads decided to simply remove the old battery).
 
*Sigh...*

Is that the brand name of the product?
 
I will be sure and avoid purchasing one of those at Home Depot.

That's strange.
 
My forum prefs are set to 'Essentials Only' yet I can still see FSF.
 
 
 

Happy Saturday, everyone.
