I have always wanted to be a little independent and be able to do things myself.  Some examples would be being able to change a tire on the car, or fixing a leaky pipe.  By no means do I need to be an expert in anything, but it doesn’t hurt to have at least a basic understanding of how to fix things.

Today, I thought I would practice my computer repair skills.  I have an older computer just kicking around for that purpose.  I decided that I would try to recover deleted partitions and recover lost partitions on it.

So, I deleted the partitions and gave it a go.  I used the Maxtor data recovery software that came with my hard drive to try and recover the partitions - and it went smoothly.  I felt pretty good with myself that I now know how to use the recovery software in case I have a problem.
