I got an additional hard disk a few days ago (300 GB, IDE, PATA). today I
finally took the time to remove the (empty) old 40 GB disk with the two
uncorrectable sectors from my internal mobile rack & put the new disk
in. after some hours of copying stuff around I now have my three disks set
up as like this:
- SATA 1: "system" (i.e. / /boot swap) — 160 GB
- SATA 2: "data" (i.e. /home) — 250 GB
- PATA: at the moment only backup of the first disk — 300 GB
hm, actually that's a huge amount of disk space. — sometimes I think
back at the times when my father's first computer at his office (a 286, in
1987) had one hard disk with 20 _M_B; & it was half empty ...

oh, & when I finally deleted the backup of my moved home directory I accidentely
deleted parts of my real homedir. grmpf. I think I could recover most of the
deleted stuff from my laptop but still ... oh, & I also deleted my
homedir on our flat server (& I don't know how exactly, it must still
have been mounted somewhere). *sigh*
