Two days ago, due to the extraneous magnetic field that has lately surrounded me, my Macbook’s internal hard drive died on me. No warning or anything, just plain dead. After reading a bit, seems I am not alone on this issue. Just be warned that if your Macbook’s internal hard drive is Seagate and its firmware is 7.0.1, you better start making sure your backups are up-to-date.
After the crash, I knew I had lost important documents since the last backup I had made was in October of 2007 :S….or so I thought. Luckily I had installed and configured Mozy a while back to automatically backup all my documents. After referring some people, my backup space was of about 3.5 GB, which was enough to store my data.
After selecting a restore, all my documents were placed back under my possession in virtually no time. If you want to give Mozy a try, use the link below to sign-up, it will give you (and me) additional space. And always always always remember to backup, because it, indeed happens when you least expect it.
