HDD: Hard Disk Dingus

As you read yesterday, I just installed a hard disk drive on my server. I thought everything was OK, but when I tried to capture some stuff with Adobe Premiere, I got another bunch of I/O errors.

As it turns out, there’s something wrong with the USB 2.0 PCI Card I also installed to connect the new drive (and the heat thing from yesterday has nothing to do with it). Now the drive is working fine on the server’s old USB 1 port, unfortunately that’s much, muuuch too slow for video editing (or even viewing). So now I have to find out what’s wrong with this PCI Card. (Sigh) If I fix it tommorrow, I’ll have spent 3 days just on installing a disk.

To make things worse, I experienced a weird crash on my PC and lost my Firefox profile with many settings. Now that’s a pain in the ***. Luckily I at least found a backup of the bookmarks.

The road goes ever on and on…
