Damnit… I setup SVN (subversion). My lack of understanding how it works had me with several working directories. So when I went to clear them out I accidently deleted one to many. I deleted the folder containing the work on my shopping cart I have been working on since AIT. Thats over 5 months ago.. All gone. So now I have subversion working, along with a cron job that runs every night to back up that folder so it never happens again. Remember, backups are important. Don’t be like me and have to learn the hard way.
I may have 2 hard drives with a raid 1 (disk mirroring) in case one hard drive fails, however this does not prevent you from doing dumb things to it.
