Journal stoolpigeon's Journal: Drive Died - Can't Subscribe 3

The drive died but not before I got copied what I wanted copied. Clonezilla failed and then it just totally tanked. So I just put in the drive I was trying to clone over to and did a fresh install. Now I'm copying back some stuff.

My Slashdot subscription ended and you can't buy it any more. The page seems to say this is temporary but I wonder if that is going away?

As I was doing my setup after installation I found some helpful notes from past journal entries. I need to collect all that stuff in one place.

    I have a subscription, but i never use it. :) Adblock rids all the ads for me, and i only really come for journals anyway.

    Too bad the drive died. I know how that feels. Norton Ghost saved me once.

    There are some solutions though, including placing the drive in the freezer for a couple hours and trying again. Though, a search just found this [seagate.com] that warns against it.

    On a side note, i have mod points. Should be coming to a JE near you. (Someone seems to have modded us all up recently as it is.) Everyone, please p

    • I modded up some of our discussions (by our I mean our little(r) circle here) last week or something like that.

      What's funny is the drive I found in the office is throwing some errors too so I just ordered a new one.
