Hard drive desert

I would like to take a minute of silence for my diseased external hard drive.

...

Thank you.
It contained many precious pictures, and wonderful films, and least but not last, Plants vs. Zombies.
I will always remember it as a cheerful and cooperative hard drive, until the day it started making sounds. The "knitsj knitsj knitsj" sound will always be with me. Like a very annoying song.
Or fleas.
Yes, this hard drive could have had a long and wonderful life, but no-one could foresee this horrible demise in any way. (Except the guy who said "salvage everything you want to keep"... Damn him.)
You will always be in my heart, my wonderful, wonderful hard drive! *sniff*
Rest in peace!
