  Triple ouch.  If you lost data, then that disk wasn't a backup, it was
the primary copy.  :-(

  There are two kinds of people in the IT world: Those who make backup
copies, and those who will wish they had.

  For my own personal data, I learned that lesson the hard way myself.  
Then a few years later, I became complacent and got to learn it again.  
Reality is a persistent instructor.
