RUclipsr refuses to back up computer RUclipsr refuses to read terms and conditions of the data services agreement and pay for the store or the service center to try to backup the data first RUclipsr makes rage bait video blaming Best Buy
Let me correct your rant. RUclipsr is lazy and didn't back up almost a brand new computer (11 months old) as , to this date, he never had issues with losing data even though he traveled extensively with it. RUclipsr was not informed of any "terms and conditions" while having the Geek squad take the computer into their care. And as they (the professionals) said, it's just the motherboard, RUclipsr never thought about the data as he is not a computer person, just a mediocre dude. Oh, I didn't need to pay for anything as it's all under warranty, thank God. RUclipsr has nothing to do with the service center as it goes to them through the store. RUclipsr makes a video to hopefully open the eyes of other people before they go through the same thing and a place for people who went through this to feel they are not alone. Lastly, RUclipsr makes click bait thumbnail to enjoy the colorful responses he will get ;) There I fixed it.
Bro blames a company for something he could of just figured out himself. Entirely your fault.
And how could I have just "figured it out myself "?
That's why I build computers myself except laptops, those can be erased, lost or just destroyed in many different ways. Backup to external drive saves the day every time.
Lol unfortunately I don't have the knowledge to pool that off
I see a lot of people ragging on you and while some of their tips and comments are valid, I don't think someone calling you stupid is productive or helpful to you. I'll say this, I haven't watched the video but I do know many service centers have a data security policy to delete data on drives that are sent to them. The best way to mitigate this as others have said is to either back up your data or remove the drives from the machine. I highly recommend investing in external HDDs or SSDs, but if you plan on installing Linux on them as someone else suggested, be careful with the distro you choose. Debian, Ubuntu, and its derivatives have a tendency of not using the EFI partition you created for them and instead take over the windows created EFI partition. That's been my personal experience at least. Overall whenever you send anything in for repair regardless of what it is, assume data on it will be destroyed and back it up. One last thing, assuming they didn't do a full wipe and as long as you haven't started using the drives they formatted, there is a chance the directory structure of the partition still physically exists on the drive. You can use software that reads this and can recover data as long as the sectors weren't overridden with zeroes or other information. Hiren's boot CD has a few of these tools in a single ISO package. If you're already using the drive again I recommend you stop and look into finding those tools and recover whatever information hasn't potentially been overridden.
I don't see the reason why they had to erase the D drive to do a factory reset.
💯 with you on that.
That sucks dude. Did you think about opening the laptop to get the drives out and back them up ? When a computer has a problem like that, it's usually not the drive. Bad drives still give you a post and than a halt prompt drive missing. Here is a video on how to open your model laptop next time this happens. Drives are easy to get to ASUS ROG Zephyrus M16 GU603 Disassembly Teardown Repair Video Review ruclips.net/video/f0mg-Y4y8BM/видео.html
Thanks. I did know that it was the motherboard and I thought the same as you that all they will do is replace the motherboard and leave the HHD's but unfortunately that did not happen. It was under warranty so I didn't want to mess with it too much, if I get a similar issue in the future I'll just go to a repair shop or try to do it myself
There were multiple mistakes here, none of them from best buy. To be blunt, this is completely on you. Firstly, using a laptop as your primary production machine is a really bad idea, lower power processors and GPUs, lower spec memory, higher density of components, poor circulation and heat dissipation, the list goes on and on. Secondly, you mention the drives were removable, you should have been putting your data on your secondary drive so you can remove it and protect it. Had you done this, all you would have needed to do was reinstall your software and insert your secondary drive. Thirdly, you didn't back anything up, that is the absolute bare minimum basics for a production machine, three backups in two locations. Fourthly, relying on single operating system. Windows isn't exactly secure and reliable, it isn't bad, but if you need data security then you should be storing your data (such as one of the backups you didn't do), on a more stable system such as Debian or RHEL, there are plenty of cloud options that offer this. At no point was it best buy's fault that you failed to perform extremely basic data security measures. The service center could have done more to protect your data, but that was not their job, their job was to fix the machine, which they did. Saying that they ruined your life because of your failure just makes you sound like you're whining and shifting blame.
Not shifting the blame, I did say that I should have backed up my date, but they should not have factory reset 2 drives without saying they will, especially when the secondary drive has nothing to do with the operating system. If you are going to erase information, you should let the customer know you are doing so. It is not ok to just do so without approval.
Service Centers don't do data recovery, it's not their job. More on that - they DESTROY any data on purpose. If you send something to them - you already must knew all data from now is gone. Completely your fault on that situation.
If I was told that was the case, obviously, I would have done something about it. As a regular person who doesn't deal with service centers on a daily basis, I had no idea. And that was the issue, the fact that they did not let me know.
Are you sure that your computer didn't just only have a one single drive and the "D-drive" wasn't just a second partition of that drive? That would explain why your computer doesn't detect it. I mean that the service center may have combined the partitions when they formatted the drive. Also those service centers that partner with large businesess and who really don't care about the customer experience usually firstly format the drive and reinstall the operating system to rule out a driver/software issue. No matter if all the symptoms point into a hardware issue. That can't be stated enough that you should always create backups of your data if you ever let an outside person handle your computer. No matter how much the shop quarantees that they respect your data. Also I commend you for remaining polite and civil while you spoke with the best buy/geek squad staff even when the situation was understandably frustrating. Anger and hostility rarely gets you anywhere.
Im sure :) I have 2 HHD drives in my computer(1 Tera, 2 Tera), I bought the second one as backup for when I run out of space, but that never happened. lol. Hopefully, this will never happen to me again, but if it does, I will be more careful, and I am starting to back up everything anyway. And yeah, no need to be rude to the service people. They are just trying to get through the day. And from my experience, if you are nice, they usually try harder to help.
Umm one copy of your data is not anyone's fault but your own....
At the end of the day it is my fault for not thinking about it, but also Best Buy's fault for not saying up front that this can happen
Similar thing happened to me… we all learn to backup important data by hook or by crook 🤷♂️ glad geek squad was helpful the people at my BestBuy shouldn’t have their job lol
I'm sorry to hear that you went through the same thing, it really sucks
listen buddy , I feel SAD FOR ur situation ,but,the REAL MISTAKE that u made was using a LAPTOP,,,next time i advise you get a DESKTOP,,cuz u can buy HDDs or SATA SSDs ,,,plug them in an just CLONE ur data ( simple copy paste ) then remove the disks and have them in a SAFE PLACE,,,,now if u're worried about doing work on the go,,,then downthe line get a laptop ONLY FOR ROAMING,,but depend maily on ur desktop......even the TOP LINE laptops can just DIE on u,,,and with ur components either soldered/stuck in there, u cant do anything abt it
A desktop computer might be a good idea. I just don't have space for that rn. And the HHD's my computer has are removable, that's why I don't understand why they erased them
The issue is entirely related to the service process not to the notebook. Almost all service centers do this, either check if you can opt in to not delete the data or take the hard drives out before you send the computer away. I'm not 100% sure but I think they do this to simplify the process for the vendor to not deal with privacy issues. All vendors do this from what I know. They likely reset the whole machine from a factory image which means all the data was gone in the first place after the factory image was flashed. Best buy could have told this to you or mention it on their website.
They should have told me, the Geek squad people were also surprised it happened and did say that the representative that checked me in should have ask about backing up my date. If only everyone was more upfront this would never have happened
@@JustGoodEnough It's a rookie mistake IMHO that something like this happens. They should know but also document this, data is wiped for almost all devices in service except for enterprise setup where you pay extra for it.
Yeah it definitely was a rookie mistake lol, one I will not repeat (I hope)
It’s completely your fault as you didn’t back up the data, and haven’t read the terms and conditions
They didn't say anything about date being erased in there
@@JustGoodEnough Backing up data should either be routine or automated, that's the lesson that should be learned from all this.
@Limitbreakur yeah I learned my lesson lol
The house lights seem very bright, It seems the band is having as much fun as the crowd 😀
If they are not having fun, what's the point? Lol
@JustGoodEnough I agree, you can hear it in the music! When the band is Enjoying it Amazing things happen
@mattmccusker7639 100%correct
No one puts on a show like Maiden
💯
Nicko missing all the vital fills. Props to him for holding it down after the stroke.
Yeah it was incredible to see
I wuz there
Let’s go philly
I was there ❤❤❤
It was awesome
Sir Gregory: 😤 Kender: 🥳
😆 lol
That’s not how it happened. Smith’s gave him the land
Are you sure? Where did you see that?
Very cool. I like the videos you've been doing lately explore the deeper lore of Dragonlance. Keep up the great work!
Thank you, it means a lot getting feedback. I am always happy to dig deep into Subjects that interests others, so if you have a topic you would like exploring let me know.
I'm enjoying your deep dive stuff, so maybe a video on the other locations in Krynn besides Ansalon and Taladas? Or on rarely seen creatures like the Kyrie or Brutes (from Summer Flame)? Just a suggestion, thanks!
@CANDROU1 Before I move on from Taladas, I have a lot of ground to cover. For the Bruts, I will definitely do, and the Kyrie I haven't considered them but now I am lol.
I hope you can or have got hold of the old box set for this continent, its pretty cool.
Unfortunately not, I have some of the PDF's and the time of the dragon book but that's it.
Always fun learning more about the lore of Taladas. I always thought that continent was primed to take over Krynn in the future as the Minotaurs were well established and the continent wasn't split asunder by the Cataclysm and constant large scale wars like Ansalon was. Cheers!
Thanks, yeah. I am kinda sorry that there are only 3 books about Taladas, I wish there was more
@@JustGoodEnough definitely!
Great job!
Thanks man I appreciate it 🙏
I have a dnd set that has the first image on the front
That's awesome
Great video. You always pick compelling artwork and time it well where the art doesn't linger long during the videos. It's great pacing and makes it fun. Cheers!
Thanks I really appreciate that, it takes a while finding art that fits and it's nice someone noticed it.
Great video! I had forgotten this entirely. I love the Fifth Age of Dragonlance. Very underrated with really cool concepts like Dragon Overlords and dormant magic. I wish there were more stories written during that era. Thanks!
Thanks that means a lot. And Same, I love the fifth age and would have liked more if the new books were continuing from where Tracy and Margaret left off.
Great interview. I really enjoy Chuck and the Nexus' DL products. In my mind, they are more canon than anything WOTC puts out
They are the true reason why Dragonlance is still alive
@@JustGoodEnough yes! Well said
Didnt know about the existence of these elves.. could you share where the Infos came from? Modules or novels?
They appear in the book Riverwind the Plainsman. I also didn't know about them before hand
I think any dragon from Athas is stronger then her but that just how Darksun is.
Honestly I don't know anything about Darksun, what dragon were you thinking of?
I don't think the afflicted kender were cursed by her, I think they were just smart enough to know fear is good.
they learned that lesson after she destroyed their homeland and tried to wipe them out completely
Way to read Wikipedia 😂
It's much more than that, some comes from the DL wiki and the rest from the books and modules
Damn, ha ha So were all the thralls freed from servitude?
Yup Without the Vampire lord they are all free
I started before DL, and I never played it. My first big adventure, tho, was the original Ravenloft (Module I6) which we played in once a week over the course of several months. Made a lot of good friends because of D&D. Even met a gf or two (or 3) because of it.
Lol, that's awesome. Ravenloft does sound like a cool, creepy setting but I've never played it unfortunately.
I want to know all about the setting of dragonlance in order to run a campaign there. What books are a must read and what would be their reading order ?
Basically the anything by Margaret and Tracy. But the champaign setting book from 3.5 (I believe or maybe 4th edition) has all the information you will need. Also depends on the year you want to play.
More people playing more games would solve all of the worlds problems. Thanks for sharing the story.
Thanks man, and yeah the more the merrier
Nice content. Interesting story
😊 thanks
Thank you for sharing your story, I'm always interested in how a fellow DL fan learned about the setting. The DRAGONLANCE SAGA RUclips channel runs games quite often and the moderator is always looking for players. He's quite knowledgeable about the setting and is a great DM - I would recommend it if you want to play in a DL game. Cheers!
Adam is amazing, I love his videos
I grew up on the Dragonlance books, devouring them during the 80s. I sometimes wonder if I could revisit them, or if my current jaded self wouldn't take to them... 🤔
I will always recommend to read them again. There are a lot of them and I love them except for a few that really don't follow the main time line. They kind of irritate me.
@Merlin I've been doing a re-read of them myself the past two years. The main ones hold up quite well, maybe slightly juvenile at times, but still extremely enjoyable. I've also discovered novels like the Kingpriest Trilogy that blew me away, and age and life experience has given me new perspective on these old novels that has been a lot of fun. I hope you dive back in like I did, cheers!
Yeah some of the non Margaret and Tracy novels are incredible
Yes sir, we too were back in the grass with you on this day. Great show!
That's awesome Maybe we will go to the same concert this summer as well
@@JustGoodEnough if it’s Yellowcard then yes 😆
Would love too but unfortunately I'm probably not going to make that show:(
I produce the Welcome to Mystara channel and I'm putting together a compilation video for the D&D 50th anniversary. Was hoping you would want to participate. Right now recruiting people for the project.
Sure, sounds fun
@@JustGoodEnough when I have more info and have filled out the list I'll send you the details. in the Avengers Assemble phase right now. But the list is filling up fast
Sounds good I can't wait
@@JustGoodEnough Need your email address, we've got everybody.
@@JustGoodEnough I need your email. We're ready to go.
Cool vid. I was always confused by the Dragonlance lore when it came to the High God and Chaos. I preferred the original pantheon from the first books. Though, it did make for an interesting antagonist in Dragons of Summer Flame. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment. Yeah they don't really have a big part in the world after it's creation except for Chaos who tried to destroy the world in Dragons of Summer flame.
Love the pictures you place throughout the video. they really add well to the story.! this is well done and really enjoyed it.
Thanks man I work really hard finding the right ones and putting them in places tha augment the story
what if the draconians fought the martians from war of the worlds they would be massacred thats what or used as food for the martians handling machines that capture humans also the heat ray weapons would melt them quickly dragons would be wiped out by the aliens really the dragons would just be something that gets in the martians way for the conquest of the planet draconlance takes place on
Lol that scenario would be awesome. You can always write it up
Just found your channel and subscribed. I love DL. Your vids have great art and music and are really enjoyable. Keep up the great work!
Thank you That means a lot! I really appreciate you.
Thanks for the video!
Thanks man I appreciate you.
So does this pre date huma ?
Hi Matt No, Huma was around 1,400-+ years before Theros. But the knowledge and dragonlances have been lost to history. Huma was just a legend at this point.
Valthonis. Not Valthoren he mispronounced it at the end
Thanks for the catch I do end up mispronouncing names here and there. If only the names were regular like Jeff or Bill I'd be good lol
If I may ask, which of the books/trilogies is Mirror from? I don't think I read it.
Mainly the Citadel of light and the War of the Soules trilogy
Got it, thanks for the info.@@JustGoodEnough
@willembirgel6530 of course happy to help
