OK, there are several things here...
1. Reformatting the disk drive during a *routine maintenance check*?
2. Number two follows below...
One bargain computer technician - $7.25/hour
Formatting the disk drive containing the data of one of your biggest accounts - $????.??
Reformatting the backup drive as well - $????.??
Your backup's "Backup" tapes unreadable - $????.??
300 boxes that have to be hand scanned - PRICELESS
OK, it had a price, $200,000, but I just couldn't make it fit the way that I wanted to.
I'm just sitting here pondering the immensity of this.
$10 says these guys have a data backup policy.
$100 says that its sitting in a blinder on a dusty bookshelf in the forgotten corner of the data center.
$1000 bucks says the policy hasn't been read by any of the IT guys since the day it was created by some policy guy in the CTO's office.
