  Cheers, didn’t really get taught any of this. Haha no pr0n! Just past lack of education about net safety or didn’t shell out for good AV, or maybe forgot regular updates.

  Most are various laptop drives within the 15 year old range. I forget what connections.

  Fingers crossed that’s it’s not the heads because that’s actual physical damage I think.

  Spare pc is a possibility, I just would have to back up and wipe an old laptop and I’m kind of struggling with day to day chores as is. Also it feels like wasting a pc by exposing a safe one if that makes sense?

  I could buy a raspberry pi as they’re cheap but I don’t know if I have the brain cells for the learning curve rn.

  It should be ok. I just need to back up social media pics locally first, then grab the stuff from other cloud storage, and then back the computer/s up. (And try to grab contact info of establish an outside connection in case social media requires ID in like a year.) The drives are sitting there and hopefully won’t get damaged or lost before I can get to them.

      Thanks! Yeah it was very likely clicking a bad link and I’ll be more careful. I probably won’t need the NAS setup and could do it manually
