Bad Hard Disk Drives ...

In the dozen or so years I've been working with PC's, I've never had a hard disk failure of any kind. (Taking a big risk typing this!) Granted, I've only worked with my own and my employer's systems, which limited my exposure to this sort of thing. Perhaps someone involved in supporting a large number of systems could share their experience in this area. Most problems I've encountered were software based, and caused by the user, including me.

However, I take backups and routine computer maintenance very, very, seriously. Whoever can keep their head when everyone around them is losing theirs probably has made a backup.

Cheerios, PW.
