In all my years as an Apple user (I go way back to the early days with my Apple ][e) I’ve never experienced such a horrendous FAIL/WTF!!!

It doesn’t help matters that I’m currently in Philadelphia, where there is currently no Apple Store. oh, well…back on the train to Montreal tomorrow. will have to take it in then.

Let this be a lesson to all: always, always, always have a backup solution in place and USE IT. Also, don’t cheap out and buy those POS LaCie drives. Spend a few extra bucks for a G-Drive. Your piece of mind is worth it. I know mine is.
