I'm a day late, but this is worth telling Yesterday, out of the blue, two of my hard drives (I have quite a lot) gave up the ghost; not entirely, but they're unreadable. I'll try to recover them - so far, so good.

Which means that in the worst of cases, I'll lose all RAW files stored after December 25th, 2019. Everything. Luckily, I have copies of all *posted* images in the cloud (or at least over 90%).
