Yea, you know the story... sister says laptop is dog slow (fact), I say alright I'll reformat it. Give her my external HDD to copy all her . onto, she copies her crap onto it, I format.

I hook up the external HDD, look... look again... turns out she only copied shortcuts to the various folders... I speak of epic fail here!

Nearly the same thing happened to my friends laptop when he asked me to fix it. It's funny but people get angry.

Indeed I have... this is a laptop, so no two drives in there.
