Buffalo LAN Disk

今日晏收工,所以回家就唔再OT了。終於有時間SETUP 兩部BUFFALO了。原來條LAN線拉直都夠長,唔駛搵另一條。只是有點似架空電纜,在PRINTER上空飛過。睇晒D說明書,SETUP好,開始BACKUP。第一樣BACKUP當然係D相啦。大學D功課筆記都用CDR BACKUP好,但經常影相,很難經常BACKUP。一部畢化佬做NAS,另一部去BACKUP前者。雙重保險。

Warranty Service

I want to send my old 120 GB harddisk back for service, before its 3 years warranty expired. For over one and a half years the harddisk was not working well. It will roars when spinning. That's scary.

I just registered at Hitachi's website. Now I've to send it back via mail. The troublesome job is to find some thick foam to wrap the harddisk. Netiher bubble wrap nor styrofoam peanuts is allowed. Otherwise, warranty will be voided immediately. The harddisk only worth just $300 but the cost of shipment and handling make it not worth the price. (see Hitachi Packaging instructions)

It might be easier for me to just throw it away rather than having it fixed. Sigh.
