I've always been good about saving things to flash drives, on a Google document, etc., but as of two Saturdays ago, I don't need to do those things anymore. Why? We became proud owners of an external hard drive!
Well.... It sat in the box for two weeks (a good use of $100, I know).
This afternoon I had a scare with my computer. The kind that cause sweaty hands, rapid breathing, and me yelling for CBF. I had to manually restart my computer (never had to do that before with my Mac) and I prayed for everything to be okay.
It turned on fine and there seemed to be nothing to worry about. YAY!
After my breathing returned to normal and some serious celebrating, we backed up my entire computer on our beautiful, Seagate 2 TB external hard drive.
I think I'll sleep better tonight.
Um, these are amazing. Plus a necessary as a grad student...remember my thesis disaster? Yeah...good choice!
