Crazy Gadgets

Not crazy as in mentally unsound but insanely entertaining. I found this website where amusing gadgets can be downloaded and added to my blog's sidebar.

The hamster at the right is an example. And don't feed him too much by the way.

The website is aBowman. Check it out.

External Hard Drive

A year ago I changed my 80GB hard drive with a 500GB. Both were Seagate SATA. I was thinking of utilizing my old hard drive as an external hard drive and use it as a backup.

Today, I just did that. Much to my surprise as soon as I run the external hard drive, my old data were still there except for my own (administrator) My Documents folder which is now empty and cannot be opened. But the other data, they are still there; documents of limited accounts, mp3s, and video files can be opened and played. I thought that unplugging the hard drive from the motherboard will automatically delete the files.

A warning to all with hard drives they want to sell—wipe out your files for good!
