• Hello and welcome to MSFC. We are a small and close knitted community who specialises in modding the game Star Trek Armada 2 and the Fleet Operations modification, however we have an open field for discussing a number of topics including movies, real life events and everything in-between.

    Being such a close community, we do have some restrictions, including all users required to be registered before being able to post as well as all members requiring to have participated in the community for sometime before being able to download our modding files to name the main ones. This is done for both the protection of our members and to encourage new members to get involved with the community. We also require all new registrations to first be authorised by an Administrator and to also have an active and confirmed email account.

    We have a policy of fairness and a non harassment environment, with the staff quick to act on the rare occasion of when this policy is breached. Feel free to register and join our community.

Why me ????

My gaming rig's hard drive has went to the happy hunting grounds :cry:

That drive a 2T SSD had all my gaming data on it ... and now I can't find my WIn 7 disk so it looks like I'm heading to Window 10 where I like it or not . :mad:

Ouch. I hope you can find some good but cheap parts. I'll send you a PM if I find something promising.

Samsung has a pretty decent warranty, especially on their pro line. I would try that route before signing off $900 to the dump.

Damn that sucks. Nothing worse than when a HD fails and you have no back up of the drive. Was it your main drive or a secondary drive?

That sucks. When I set up a desktop I try to do the following:
  • Main Drive, just for windows and those programs that need to be reinstalled with windows, MS Word, Photoshop etc.
  • Data Drive, just for data like 3D models, images etc
  • Game Drive, just for my game installs.

Then I have a couple of portable back up drives that I use to back-up data on just in case I loose a HD. A 2TB portable is pretty cheap on ebay these days, $140AU for a Western Digital Passport. I have 3 of them, 1 of which is for my Xbox One.

Might be something to consider in the future. ;)
