Re: Server Reset Request Thread
Meaning you're going to use the DOA drive on a firing range ?

Re: Server Reset Request Thread
Appreciate all the work you are doing to bring the islands back up terryrayc!
If you can point us to some linky to donate I'll send something - won't be a great deal but it all helps eh?
On a vaguely related note your sig is broken... the portal seems to have a working link to the wiki tho:
lore/index.php?title=Main_Page
http://www.arkaz.com/wiki just seems to point to a 404

Re: Server Reset Request Thread
I'm going to go ahead and bring the systems up with the 7/30 backup. I've replaced everything except the platters on the drives and they still keep failing. I think we can recover from that. The only bad thing is that I don't seem to have a current backup of the internal websites. I'm not sure how out of date the backup I have is.
Sigh.

Re: Server Reset Request Thread
I'm still sending the drives off to get checked. There is a good company not far from here there has a good track record of pulling data off disks that are in bad shape. They will do a review for free and let me know if they can recover the data. While I'm not going to make everyone wait another week or 2 I really want to see if they can recover the team and player websites. The copy I have is old and out of date and I really do not want to try and see if I can rebuild it from memory.

Re: Server Reset Request Thread
drive has been shipped out. Should know in 2 to 3 days if they can recover the data and the cost.
Good news I've redesigned the way the data is being backed up and there are now 3 layers of protection so in the future we should be good.
