Despite helping a colleague, I am still clocking off early enough that I can grab a chorizo and lentils on the way home before the rush hour traffic hits. So that's tea sorted.
I've just got a click and collect notification, so I can grab that.
Then cooking and pub. If I have the time I might Dremel open an external hard drive as it's started making a clunking noise since I knocked it over.
Before doing anything, please back up that HDD. Clunking but working means "back up now, I could die any second"
Oh it's clunking and not working.
🙀
Yeah, I think it's screwed. 😕
As somebody who recently has their first clunky not worky HDD and tried data recovery…
I am so sorry.
Quick edit: it’s been a solid 20 years of non-dying HDDs though, so at least there’s that!
