Sending this inquiry to you all since I know there are more than a few IT g=
uys in this group.....
I bought three 512GB flash drives for archiving here at work. One locked up=
in each of our offices and one for me to add to files as necessary as file=
s are amended. They have approximately 450GB on them.
One of the three failed as soon as I finished filling it. I bought a differ=
ent brand and made a replacement copy for the safe in our Madison office. A=
second, the same brand as the first one that failed is locked up in our MK=
E office and will also be replaced now because the third one (the one that =
has amended archived files) is also failing. I am having a hard time retrie=
ving the amended files before this drive takes a final crap on me. It took =
over 15 hours to pull one 87MB file from the dying drive. I can't even atte=
mpt to pull more than one file at a time. Not that this should matter, but =
the files are mixed word, pdf, saved outlook emails and miscellaneous audio=
or video files and possibly other items.
What I am wondering/hoping is that someone might know of a solution to this=
nearly impossible retrieval process. Or am I just screwed here?
Next year we will be storing everything in the cloud so I won't have to dea=
l with this PITA process.
Thanks
tim
