Laura: Are you going to get a new computer? Adam: I'm still morning, Laura. More for the loss of all that work than for the computer. I think I just need to be alone for a while. Laura: Well, let me know if I can do anything. Adam: You could roll some peanut M&Ms under the door.

Peanut butter M&Ms are the greatest food ever!

Having somebody pull the the data off a dead hard drive is very very expensive.

From Wednesday: I met to type Carbonite, not “Carbonate”. It’s an online backup file sofware that Adam should’ve used. Instead of wasting his money (and his heath) on coffee every day, he should invest money on that!

My apologies if I was spamming.

If this weren’t a comic strip, I would advise Adam to take the computer to the Geek Squad at Best Buy or something like that but since it is, I’ll just laugh at his pain. :-)

So no one has told him that the data is recoverable?

Dude, don’t eat ‘em off the floor. I don’t care how good they taste.

I can think of something she could do for him that would be much better than M&Ms

Taking it to Best Buy won’t work. In the previous day we saw his Hard Drive “gasp” and “Death Rattle”. That means the drive’s heads are at fault.
The only thing to do is wrap the HD in a plastic bag and stick it in the freezer overnight. In the morning pull it out and quickly hook it up and move the data off it as fast as possible. When the heads go funky again, put it back in the freezer and do it again.
I saved over 500gigs doing this.
