sherryillkI'm spending the night backing up my data on my laptop... Today, a very strange sound was emitted from it, something like a strangled beep and quite unlike anything I had ever heard from it before. I'm not sure what it means but that coupled with the numerous BSODs I've been getting lately (I've attributed it to FV since it makes Flash and Firefox crash like crazy), I'm starting to think my hard drive might be in danger.
So just in case, I'm back up essential data...my translations, my manga, music, that sort of stuff... Since I've done this numerous times before now, I'm basically an old hand at it and it's going smoothly. And with my new external hard drive, I have ample amount of space to just put lots of crap on it and sort it all out later. Yay for that.
I'm doing my manga now but I'm starting to think I might have been smarter to do my bookmarks first. That and my music as their files are much less numerous and thus, much less time consuming to get through... I don't think my computer is going to die right at this moment so I'm not sensing much of a rush to get it all done now but just in case...Especially since I apparently have almost 29 GB of manga and it's projecting it to take 10 hours to copy. It won't take that long, it never does but still, it's a bit alarming... :\
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a good result.
