Here we go again! Computer problems rear their ugly heads once more. Not one, but three of my external hard drives (office and home) gave up on me last week. These are where I make daily and weekly backups, to protect my work if the computers break down. It’s rather gutting if the backup drives themselves break down!
The bad news is that one of them — an expensive 2-terabyte drive — is a write-off. The good news is that our IT department has been able to fix one of the others; and the third has not lost all the data, though some of it is corrupted. More good news is that the department will pay for a new backup system for my work computer. This system has two identical disks, with software that copies the backups to each of them — so if one fails, you still have the other. We’re thinking of a similar solution, if possible, for our home computers…
Anyway, we would be very grateful for your continued prayers that the Lord will protect the valuable data I work with — His Word in the heart-language of many who have never had it before.
