Happens to even the best of us.  Last week, I had an SSD crash of my main PC and shortly after learned that my back-up wasn’t going to work and my secondary back-up set me back 2-years.  Considering my love of photography and all things digital, that was a MASSIVE loss.  Sitting right beside my PC was SanDisk’s newest SanDisk …
