There are services that can recover a crashed hard drive. They aren’t cheap, but they are often able to get back almost everything that was on the drive.David

My buddy does the "pull things off crashed hardrives" and he said it was a goner! He is a good guy to know as he used to be the head programmer at HP. Years ago. Retired from them and does repairs to anything to do with computers. It seems that most the time i has to do with a electronic componant going bad that controls or reads the harddrive. But he said mine was beyond fixing or recovering what was on it. Figures! Ive spent a few days going through all the discs I have and rebuilding but a lot of files are just lost to me. Now if I wasnt a good guy I could just download stuff from the web. Its illegal and its also a little over my head so I end up with viruses or something.

That amount of info put on the cloud would cost money. They only give you a little for free. Plus, ive ne er liked the idea of the cloud. I dont know where my info would be or how safe it is from others. Like who owns the cloud anyway. The goverment? Plus id rather have it saved at my home instead.

Morale of the story: music CD's weren't such a bad thing after all.
