Don’t loose data. Its expensive to get back

Kinja'd!!!

Had a 16 GB SD (full of hard fought video and pictures) fail on me. The cost to get it back? $400 or more. One of those things where it just sucks all around. I may be able to get it down to $200 but even then.

You should try tying down your data next time.

I used to work as a proctor in our department computer lab, and we had a saying: “There are two kinds of computer users: those who have lost data, and those who will lose data.” I had an external HD die and lost a crap ton of photos. Recovery fees were exorbitant (as you know) and I have chalked them up as just gone.

Don’t treat your data poorly, it won’t run away next time.

This is why I use JFileSync across our home LAN to sync my important files to my laptop, spare desktop and main desktop :)

Sorry to hear of your data failure tho, glad you can at least get it back - that’s the main thing!
