LOOKING BACK – YESTERDAY
What went well?

1. I had to recover a hard drive failure last night.  It took me 6hours to finally recover the data and get the pc back on line.  I was not satisfied with the time I spent on recovery.  In theory, it should just be at most 2 hours.  I learned a few lessons along the way.  Overall, got the drive going again without resorting to installing a new drive.
What didn’t go so well?
1. Problem definition took a while (1hr).  The initial complaint was the software was sluggish and timing out waiting for the next command.  The history of what happened was not clearly stated most likely due to “fear factor” of getting blamed.  If I’ve known right away of how it started, I could have formulate the problem statement right at the start of troubleshooting and then work myself backwards to fix the problem.  Instead, I have to piece together what really happened and make assumptions.
What would you do differently next time?
0. Step0 “Run DiskTT” Disk Thruput Test
1. Step1 will be “Run Process Monitor” Info Here
2. Step2 will be “Run Safe Mode”
3. Step3 will be “Run chkdsk c: /f /r”
4. Step4 will be “Run chkdsk d: /f /r”
Conclusion:
1. Need a Raid solution
2. Need an drive imaging solution
