OMG I've had a nightmare couple of days. Looks like my piece of SHIT APC surge protector failed, and a power spike fried my computer. I know it smoked the power supply, ran back an forth to Vegas 2x yesterday getting new power supply (my luck, 1st out of box was faulty)
. I pulled my drives out and swapped them with MadHatter's computer. Nothing happens.
My computer is with a local tech right now and I'm anxiously awaiting the phone call on how much of my components were toasted. OMG I haven't backed up for about a month, and of couse I backed up to my secondary drive which appears to also be toast.
I've started the process of filing a claim with APC for them to repay me for all the components fried, but that sure as hell won't replace all the data I lost.
If this local tech can't do it, does anyone know of a good service for trying to recover data off fried drives, hopefully one that wouldn't be too upset to recover a boat load of adult content? I'd appreciate any suggestions or companies people have.
I'll keep ya'all updated. At least MadHatter is up and running np, all the link lists are getting checked so that is continuing on as normal, so no worries there.
