Sabrada, Zoric, Luca, etc - Planned Downtime

Post by zaroba »

Planned Downtime

Worlds:
Zoric, Planitia, Sabrada, Wings Field, Luca

When:
tomarrow morning, possibly later tonight as well, but not for the whole night.
tonights starting time might be around 8:30pm or 9:00pm eastern time. ending time possibly around 11:00pm eastern time.
tomarrows exact starting time is unknown, ending time is also unknown.

Reason:
I will be going threw old, busted hard drives and taking stuff off them. like models i was making, old heightmaps, old world stuff, all kinds of game stuff. i don't know exactly what hard drive it was on though, so i will have to go threw all 4 of them and get needed stuff off them. the 4 drives are a 30gb, 2x 80gb, and a 120gb. the 30gb one will probably only take an hour or 2, the 2 80gb drives will probably take 2-3 hours each, the 120gb drive might take 3-4 hours. but that depends on how much is takin off them. the scan alone will be 15-45 mins for each drive.



keep in mind that the time lengths specified are estimations of how long it could possibly be. it will probably be alot shorter and quicker then the specified times.

worlds went down around9pm, they will be back up shortly.

went threw a 30gig hard drive, found barly anything on it but deleted old music and anime music videos. the process took longer then i thought it would due to me forgetting i had deleted Stellar Phoenix and had to redownload it.

then after doing it all, i found out that the hard drive wasen't even busted in the first place and it is currently being formatted for use in a future pc.

on a side note, i did find a 40gb hard drive which i know is busted. its the one that came with this pc when we got it last october.

all done, went threw and got pretty much nothing off 3 of the drives, and 2 of the drives were too gone to scan at all.
