I need to make backups again, but I think my portable hard drive broke
and my backups are around 100GB
@lizardsquid broke how?
@Zaiaku it disconnects from the computer automatically after a few minutes
@lizardsquid woo...that could be a ton of shit. Wire is bad, port bad or maybe the USB port on the computer is bad.... The drive itself might be fine.
@Zaiaku given that I dropped the drive when I moved home, it could also be the drive
@lizardsquid Put your ear up to it then plug it in. If the drive clicks or sounds like its grinding, its definitely the drive
