    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Don't wait until it happens to you!

It has happened to all of us at one time or another, and it is a disaster!

I have two 2TB drives in my flight sim computer and the second one I was just using for storage. Then I decided to copy all that stuff I was backing up to another external drive and use the second drive as a bootable second operating system as a back up, just incase it happens to me. I plan to update it once a week.

I used the free version of DiskGenius and it was very easy to do, takes less than 30 minutes.

It is always nice to have a back up.
