Losing your data and starting again from point blank in a new hard disk or Laptop. If you use your laptop to save your important data, you may have came across this problem a couple of times. In fact a lot of people, including my self have face this problem in one way or the other. Reasons are different, may be your hard disk blown up or your laptop was stolen or something else but end result is same, a lot of tension and doing again all the work you have done already . Also starting from point blank where you don't have anything you used to help yourself is itself a big problem, isn't it?
Losing your data means all those hours you have spend working on a project or thesis or probably on an office assignment has gone into waste. And also all your important files from pervious assignments or your books or your collection of movies are just gone. You have to do that all again.
In cause of movies or some publicly available data, you may be able to download it but what if it is your thesis or your research work or anything that is private? It means you have lost it and you will have to do it again.
A famous post that hits the social media last days with a lot of people sympathizing with the victim also state a similar problem. Apparently some woman scholar from Punjab University lost her five years of research 'cause of her laptop misplacing.
