Perhaps one of the worst sounds you can ever hear from your hard drive is “click click click click……wrrrrrrrr,” followed closely by “Bad Block” errors. That was the not-so-sweet song PatandMeg.com’s 4-year old hard drive made shortly after being setup in our new apartment on Friday. After a weekend of cursing and compiling, the server is slowly returning to life powered by it’s new hard drive, and thanks to the amazing Linux utility dd_rescue, that managed to save much of what you’re reading below.
Please leave a comment here if you notice anything strange as repairs are continued over the coming days.
It appears most of our comments were lost
