#68 Backup

When my MacBook Pro crashed and all my data was lost, I had to rely on my Time Machine-enabled Seagate external hard disk to retrieve my data. It was an excruciatingly slow process - two months to extract the data file by file. Some files were corrupted and had to be copied only after restarting the computer. Eventually, after getting some files from alternative sources (e.g. Facebook, school shared folders), I only lost one file in the end. Not too bad considering I had 150GB of data, including documents, music and videos. Thank God for his providence and mercy.
