So I put my sh1tty "laptop" in my backpack with the flash drive still connected to the usb drive and was off to star bucks too finish work.. I sit down with my nice hot chocolate, warm food...open my backpack and surprise my usb is no longer connected to my laptop but bent.
It really wasn't bent that much but the part that plugs in to the usb drive is usually thin (metal?) mine is plastic. That part is what got bent. I took it to bestbuy and they just told me they would send it off to get fixed for $250+.
I then decided to try a DIY and failed, badly. It sounds worse reading but I cracked it slightly. I have no idea how but I gotta imagine there is someway to retrieve the information. I have ALL my business receipts, part of my inventory... need I say more? |
