I looked around and found a 500 GB external backup drive yesterday for $79.99 shipped. I’ve faced the fact that I’ll probably not be able to salvage all my photos and documents from my crippled old laptop, $80 is cheap insurance for backup. I keep my most important files backed up to CD’s but then I have to find just the right CD when I need it. This will be much simpler and less annoying than dealing with burning a CD or DVD.
I only work a half day tomorrow, I had an unused half-day of vacation to spend before the year was over so I’ll have from noon tomorrow until 8 AM Friday for my New Year’s break. It does suck to come back and work that Friday after New Year’s but I’m not going to burn a day of vacation in the new year just for that one silly day. |
