Primary HDD failure

Journal Entry: Mon Jul 6, 2009, 3:32 PM


Sometimes I'm NOT on fire!




My primary hard drive suffered from multiple catastrophic failures yesterday resulting in the almost certainly permenant loss of hundreds of hours of art work among hundreds more in other work including folder upon folder of 3D projects over the past year. All said nearly 300 or so files have been lost. Many of these have no backup and the majority are in savestates that have since been updated, but lost in the crash.

All artwork will be postponed until further notice.



In case anyone is curious, the hard disk was a Seagate Freeagent drive that suffered a delayed write error containing $Mft. Until I can get the drive to stop spinning I can't even begin recovery. Anyone with a freeagent needs to promptly backup thier files, as this seems to be a common malfunction in the last few months.

Yep. Been pretty quiet lately. I don't want to be, I just get that way sometimes when I haven't much art to bring into the world.

Not that it is for lack of ideas...

Hello fellow dragon artist!

I decided it was about time to let everyone on the new Dragon Artists List know they are on there.

Its not a club and doesn't require you to do anything, its just an A-Z listing of deviantART members who create dragons. If you wish to be removed, just let me know and I'll take you off. If you have friends who want to be added, tell them to send me a comment or note :)
