Alas!

First the carpet, now my hard drive!
My ol’ 80GB hard drive is the last that remains of my original computer, built in Summer 2003. (All other components, including the case, have been upgraded.) Just a few minutes ago, when I tried booting my desktop up, it would spin up, click, repeat. Broked!!!
Fortunately it was a good sport after I released it from its mount and now it’s letting me run Vista to back everything up (although I backed up last week, so all would be pretty good anyway). So it’s working again, but I don’t trust it with my data anymore. I just bought a 500GB 3GB/s SATA drive to replace it. It’s been a great trip buddy! Best 80GB I ever owned!
