We scrounged together the funds to spring for the external hard drive, all data was moved to it to be transferred hours later to our main pc... and then disaster struck. A piece of metal within the hard drive became loose and led to the external hard drive burning to a crisp... with everything in it that our webmistress has done over the last year and a half....
