Despite the magic rings in the buttom, the way I got this photo is more dramatic.
I shot this photo on last sunday, while I had no time to see what they look like, my laptop was stolen on Monday, and yes, all the files are in the harddisk and I have deleted those files in my CF card.
The police then came to my office to collect the finger prints, and also told me that there's no chance to get my VAIO back, because the thief is a professional islander girl, and she is well know by the police. She steal things from office buildings and sell them to drug dealers.
Well, that's the most bad news I have ever heard since... well, whatever, it's very bad anyway.
I started to think data missing in my laptop, then the photos I shot on Sunday came to my mind, oh, pretty bad. I then started to search solutions to recover my files from the CF card, and I did it! So now I have my photos back by some magic software and thanks god it is so worthy!
Now I'll try to live up and maybe try to forget my little VAIO.
I am back! Had a great 6 days in Tokyo and Karuizawa. I probably need to buy a new harddisk before I can download all the pictures from my camera! Lucky that I still have one or two images on stock!
I hope all of you are well, and I promise I will visit your stream soon!
In the Fall of 2020, I resolved to acquire a new PC, as my then-current one was 6 or 7 years old and running Windows 7, which was no more updated. I had to go to version 10, and such a big upgrade required new hardware.
As I usually do, I inquired left and right to find out what the best components would be for that new PC, and before I assembled them, I had fun taking pictures of some of them.
These two photos show the solid state “hard disks” I installed inside the case, in addition to three more traditional ones which I use for backup. Those Samsung drives are much faster, much more reliable as they contain no moving parts, and certainly a lot easier to install! :o))
One of the few photos I have from our trip to Perugia and Assisi. The rest have been 'eaten' by a hungry harddisk.
Checking where my data are :)
I needed to open and see such an endangerd hard drive before they get fully replaced by SSDs. Fascinating mechanical precision and cleanliness in these devices.
The storage layer is highly reflective, the writing "Data" comes from the reflected light from a papersheet that I had placed above.
My current home office setup.

This is an old pic of me when we were in New York.
My harddisk died on me yesterday. Dont think I ll be uploading anything for the time being. Some of my pics werent backed up... Well at least I have my film shots in hardcopy.
Aquí empieza o termina todo: nuestro trabajo, nuestras agendas, nuestros recuerdos...parte de nuestras vidas en ceros y unos.
Resulta curioso plantearse esto al verlo desprotegido de sus corazas, brillante, frio y aséptico...
so glad I found my pics from a business trip to Chicago Illinois, somewhere hidden on a external harddisk..
watching these picture I realised how much I loved this city, it was my first trip to the states...I was realy realy impressed.

My friends Shabir Patel and Mohd Patel who own a production studio "Samson" has a wall in their studio where all these storage media hold pride of place.
I loved the way they were placed and the way these two brothers had treasured all this from almost past 3 decades.
I just thought to capture it and took them all out from that special wall to a nearby beach and shot this picture.
Now apart from that wall, all these medias holds a special place in my photostream.
I hope you will all like it.
Here I present "Storage media" over the past 3 decades.
