ouch

so like, once upon a time there was an 80GB hardisk as my eternal drive, those small portable ones that you carry around in the laptop bag and put junk in whenever you lay your hands on somethingy.
So like few months ago that 80GB started making noises, paid no heed, and then one day finally it stopped responding, there lighted up an alarm in the brain that oh damn, DATA , all that years and years of DATA.
and like that 80GB was rushed to data recovery experts who kinda examined it and informed me that its was beyond repair , although data could be saved by opening it up and going sector by sector and its gonna cost like 15k.
so i decided to say goodbye to that data and went on to buy a new harddisk. decided to go for a branded one this time as to have more "reliability". Compared like a locally made 500GB to a 320GB of Westren Digital, and WD was like 2k more expensive.
The problem is , i have this thingy, that once i like somethingy i end up buying it sooner or later , so 320GB WD it was , with a sleek sesky look to it, 10 months warranty 24 month extended warranty.



so i kinda end up taking this beauty home. 320GB was a lot of space and i managed to just fill up like 60GB in the past one month.


it was a dark night, there was no sun to be found, it was more dark as the tube light was off, and there was an eery glow coming from the screen of the laptop and the harddisk was on the bedside table beside me and then as fate would have it , my cousin knocked it down the table and it crashed on his foot and then to the floor. Oh the horror, the HORROR , THE HORROR

and now the disk has stopped responding, its not being detected and like i called up warranty support and no ones picking up the call, but dropping does not get covered in warranty anyway.

Its a sad sad sad day...........
