Accidentally deleted a file from my USB pen... :(

Really?

I've had to replace 3 Flash Drives in 4 years due to burnout and only 1 hard drive has burned out on me in 15 years. Oh well I'm always the odd man out.

I don't mean it in a physical way How heavy duty they are, etc...

What I mean was, if you put in data inside your flash drive and your hard disk together at the same time as a backup kinda things, the data will be last longer in the flash drive compare to the hard disk! You know... the climate can effect the device "long lasting" things...

I'd say it was more reliable, flash memory can survive knocks and falls since they're solid state drives, hard drives usually can't since the mechanics of them are so delicate. If you do have any important files you should have a back up of it anyway, regardless of what media you store it on, though I can't honestly say I always follow this rule, I'm too lazy

Edit: didn't see the 2nd page

I suppose flash memory doesn't last as long since you don't hancle them in the same way as you do hard drives, I just chuck my pen drive into the bottom of my bag, if I had a portable hard drive I would be more careful

Yeah... Backup, Backup and Backup!
Keep remind yourself that!

I deleted all my Xmas files off my USB pen accidently, but managed to all back plus more using a program called "retrieve my files". If program is still required please just ask. It recommends not to use your USB pen till you have run this program.

A link to that program would be nice

This is an amazing tool.

Recovers all storage devices.

Better try then regretting your whole life

I brought my USB pen from ebay 8gb,
when i was recovering my xmas picture I recovered a lot more of someones holiday etc and the USB pen was meant to be brand new!!

What did you do with that poor little things Justin?
Did you toast them in the oven?

Haa, I hope it's not a private picture..

Actually I think he/she had to hand it in last week

Ohhh... It's too bad!
But if this program works (finding the css file), it's an advantage for him in case this thing happens again

Well eminee, did you try the program?
