Get Monday Started On the Right Foot

[ase]

Dear internet, 350 GB external drive with most/all junk on it crashed
while swapping music files to mp3 player. Please send troubleshooting
thoughts and/or 1 TB replacement drive.

Also, it was 22 F when I woke up this morning.

Silver lining also on crashed drive?

Speculatively,

A.

ETA: Loose power cord. Did you know that CNET-respected 1 TB drives are now under $200? I know what I'm getting myself in January!

It is still colder than freezing out, but I have long underwear. Before this week is out, I plan to have more.
