Just a quick note to say I have had a rather catastrophic power supply/hardware failure here, it has taken out my workstation, the internal RAID, the external RAID, my Titan, Motherboard, Xeon CPU, SSDs and pretty much everything that was plugged in at the time. Chips blown off drives, tracks burned off the motherboard, it is a disaster.
I’ve lost well over 30TB of data, and am still working out what is left.

So a heads up to anyone I have done scans for, the copy you have is most likely the only copy now in existence, I no longer have a backup, so please, please, please back up your copy if you haven’t already done so.

I’m not sure what I am going to do at this point, nearly all 35mm I have scanned is also backed up offsite, so I need to get a computer together and check those archives, but I have lost a ton of work, and pretty much all of the small format (16mm/8mm etc) and laserdisc, VHD and VHS captures.

The only computing I am currently running is on my phone, so please give me some leeway with answering emails etc. and preferably contact me via gmail or via the forum as I can access those from anywhere.

So again, if I have done any scanning for you, please make an offsite backup, as I am no longer holding a copy here.
