April 3, 2009, Newsletter Issue #161: How to Tell if your Hard Drive is Hardly Working

Tip of the Week

Sadly, like the pet hamster that meets its demise so too will your Hard Drive -- eventually.

As a precaution it's always a good idea to back up precious data & applications on CDs -- just in case.
