I Think I Found Them All

Let's hear it for back-ups!

When the Drobo died, it took out a few large files.

I thought I still had them because their names were in the directories where they were supposed to be, but I found a few of them that wouldn't open.

While trying to figure out why, I noticed they were 0kb instead of a few mb in size.

Dammit.

Something went wrong moving them from one drive to another, I guess.

Happily, for most of them I have more than one copy and they 0kb was replaced with a known good.

The couple I was short, they were readily recovered from off-site sources.
