My 5 year old 40 Gig HDD and my 2yr old 500W Power Supply just went south on me on Friday. I didn't have any open flame activity, but I did get a wiff of what a power supply smells like when it goes poof.And yes... my data was all backed up! I use a an external 250Gig USB HDD that I absolutely love.BTW: Remember I was telling you about my disappearing System Tray Icons, a while back? Well... problem solved!
