Always Make Backups

January 13th, 2007

Broken PowerBook G4 Note to self: always make backups. It does not help if it is only written in your TODO list.

Hard drive of my trusty old PowerBook had been giving out warnings of possible failure for a while. This week it happened. Booting up suddenly took 25 minutes. When hitting bad sector OSX retried reading broken file minute or two. Luckily with help of SuperDuper! I was able to rescue 95% of my user folder. Only thing lost were a couple of holiday pictures and two albums from iTunes.

Always make backups… Always make backups… Always make backups… Always make backups… Always make backups… Always make backups…
