For the third time in three years I am slowly living through the death of a Maxtor hard drive. This time it’s actually the boot drive, so my PC is gradually descending into data hell. I regularly back up most things, but I still have lots of little programs and data files that I’m not sure that I backup all that regularly. So now I’m running against the clock, grabbing all the files I can and throwing them on secondary drive much like someone grabbing prized possessions while running from a burning building as the flames climb the walls.
This PC is a little over six years old, but I’ve been upgrading pieces here and there throughout its life. I’m not particularly sad to see it go because it was never a “new” PC. It was built from a combination of old parts and new parts after I had a very unsatisfying experience with a computer that I had just bought from computer store that looked like a cow. The problem was that I was working for the computer store that looked like a cow at the time.
I don’t even know if I’ll be able to finish this post before the drive starts clicking again and my entire system freezes into a sleep from which it will never recover.
Soo… suggestions on what PC brands are actually worth buying these days?
