I'm just going to hope I can recover the files - some of the stuff on there is going to be painfully difficult to find again. There a fair number of series I won't cry about too much since I archived them for the sake of archiving - some of it I have on retail DVD already. *sigh*

I'm hoping it's not a hardware related fault - but given that the drive was making strange noises when it woke me up, it might be. Which may make recovering things problematic.
