Catastrophic Hard Drive Failure #2

So this is the second 2TB external drive I've had go out in the last year. Both were working drives for my new film Rats & Gassers: Kustom Kulture Takes A Ride. After the last big crash, I saved the bulk of my files to BluRay BD-Rs using Toast. So now the reconstruction begins. I have decided to buy cheaper USB 3.0 drives to store the files on, then shelve afterwards. The Firewire 800 drives are more expensive and having them connected all the time reduces drive life. I will keep one Firewire drive connected as a working space and then use the USB drives to archive/backup my work. 

New Studio Rug

Got a new rug for the new studio. Only $12 at Value Village! The studio is slowly coming together. I need to sound proof one wall and get another area rug for my percussion area. Slowly...

Old Gear

Broke out the old gear to add to the home studio. Sold a lot of gear the last few months and had some things (like my Boss SE-50 and Roland S-550) that are useful but going unused. I am trying to skinny up my recording set-up and not just buy things I never use and that sit and collect dust.
