Poor Roger is in detox from all the 80's pop we made him listen to last week
After a week of #Unix and #Linux security and hardening with @hal_pomeranz I’m back to the office and back to listening to music at work. Playing the new @raisedfist album Anthems. Pretty good stuff! Very very good training too, btw #SEC506 @SANSInstitute

Go check out the WWII era oil storage tanks they cut into the cliffside. Near there is also a live coral reef exhibit that is pretty cool. Avoid at all costs the Paspaley Pearls exhibit which is nearby—it’s a commercial masquerading as a museum.

I’m more a math person. I give you $1M and you go nuts and spend $3K/day—you’re out of money in a year. I give you $1B, and it will take you 1000 years to spend it all at the same rate. $100B will take you 100,000 years to spend.

A huge thank you to @United customer service employee Issis Vallejo at EWR. Her kindness going the extra mile has really started our journey with a smile.

Pick up a @Budget rental at MIA, return in Orlando less than 24hrs later and get charged for two days because I returned the car at 1:30 instead of noon. Been a @Budget customer for years, but no longer—ridiculous customer “service”.

Thanks! I think I’m good. I’m in the middle of doing a second logical copy for safety’s sake.

This worked! Thanks for the suggestion!
Winning suggestion in the “how to see the old USB drive” sweepstakes was sent in by @daveisdigital who suggested forcing the drive into slave mode. Instant win!

Interesting...I’ll give that a go!

Yeah, I’m just going to have to source a replacement from eBay or something

I appreciate your ideas anyway. If it was just a busted file system I could deal with that. But there seems to be some sort of hardware issue. Next step is validating my adapter connection with a different drive.
Nuts. The ancient 5.25 HDD with the kids’ baby videos spins up, but none of my machines recognize it through the (brand new) USB adaptor. If only I knew some experts in HDD recovery...

I am sorry for your loss. Family is family, no matter the species, and losing family is the worst.

Thanks for the offer—path of least resistance was to order a $25 adapter from Amazon. Curious about your “older than IDE” comment—any recommended reading on this?
Where the heck did I leave that 5.25" IDE drive adapter? I haven't needed one in ages. #RecoveringOldHDDs4Family

Congrats! Well done!
Well @sansforensics it’s been an amazing week at #DFIRCON. Thanks to @SANSInstitute @DavidJBianco and @hal_pomeranz for teaching FOR572! Even came out winning the coin!
