I am just... so perplexed right now. I don't know whether to cry, scream, skin an animal, or slit my wrists.
I had an external harddrive I used for everything. All my music, personal files, years worth of information... And one day, it died. I never really recouped that music information, I haven't listened to nearly as much music since.
I had my internal harddrive on my mac die last summer. No reason, didn't drop it or anything, just was using it one day and the spinning wheel just kept spinning. So I restarted and it give the little folder icon. Got a new one installed under warranty.
I've been editing my first feature film for about two months now. I got a new kitten. She's not supposed to get on the dresser, and when she does I sit her down, but she just won't learn. I finished my daily scene worth of editing, so the harddrive wasn't running. She darted onto the dresser too quick for me to stop her, just running around like an idiot, and there the harddrive went. Bam, on the floor. Hard fall, hard wood floor. Guess I'll go buy another tomorrow and hope it functions long enough to transfer everything via USB. However, I doubt I'll get much sleep worrying about it.
I am just sick of this. How do people get by? Why must a 1tb solid state drive (enough to edit a feature film's worth of video and save all the rendered files) cost more than my camera? I'm just... going to have a meltdown. This kitten is laying next to me now. Now she wants to cuddle. I'm considering using her skin as a soft cover for the next harddrive. Think that'll protect it?
