Data recovery is a nightmare

(Photo credit: Wikipedia)

I never thought it could happen to me, but I was completely and 100% wrong. I was working late into the night on a power point presentation that I would give the following morning at 8 AM. Don't ask why I didn't have it ready before. I went to save it to my USB drive, and instantly my screen went black and I couldn't turn on or get a response out of my computer at all. After cursing and stomping around for a while, I realized that was nothing I could do besides go to bed and give my presentation without any visual assistance for me or my audience.

After all that grief, I realized that I needed some way of instantaneously recovering my data. I originally had a plan, whose name I won't mention, that stopped allowing data recovery for a 30 day window, which happened to be when my computer crashed. There are some data recovery service options that are perfect for recovering vast amounts of information in a short period of time. What I need though is something that I can personally manage and can get from a variety of sources. This is part 1 of the data recovery series, part 2 will update you on what I end up doing! Let the suspense build! ;)
