Default IT nightmare

I remember years ago when I ran a multi-line BBS and the hard drive failed. I had over 1000 users and kept both lines busy. Hard drives back then were pricey when you wanted something larger than a 50 meg RLL or MFM drive. I had not saved for the failure, so the board was down for about a week. The stress level was enormous, so I can only imagine what the poor IT guys here went through.

My hat is off to you!

I was thinking, let's say the backup failed. I know I would send whatever I had downloaded and saved right back to the source if necessary. Rebuilding this great storehouse that has no equal is a monumental task.
