    As you might have noticed any posts made in the last day have vanished, this is because the drive in the Digiex server which has the MySQL data on appears to be failing.

    We did manage to recover most of the database, however parts of it were corrupt. After trying out best to recover the corrupt tables we thought it would be best to play it safe and restore a fully working backup from last night.

    Im not sure if any downloads were posted today, if they were the files uploaded to the FTP server will still be there.

    Hopefully not too many posts have been lost, if you are able to re post anything that might have been lost it would be appreciated.

    Cheers.

    There did not appear to too much activity yesterday so I don't think the losses were major. It could have been worse right?

    That it could have been! Glad the auto-backup task we scheduled for 3am every night took place, otherwise a lot more data could have been lost :O
