Must Backup Data, My Hard Drive Crashed

It’s was a disaster and black out moment when your computer or hard drive suddenly crash. Omg! so what happened to my data??? All gone??? I cried all day but that did not help at ALL. I tried to retrieve using all sorts of software, only can recover a few percent of it. Then thinking of sending to a pro for data recovery, too expensive might cost thousands. Lesson learnt always remember to backup and backup and backup my data.

  

What did you do during Deepavali Holiday? Hmm… well this Deepavali Holiday I was in KL mainly visiting some of my Hindu friends and also hibernate at home. So I decided to do some data backup especially those travel photos and also my work related materials and documents.
