Sadly, my external HDD died last night 😞 I lost a lot of stream-related stuff, and more importantly some really important documents.

I’m still figuring out next steps, so streams might look a little different while I regroup. I’ll keep you all updated—just feeling pretty bummed about it right now. 💔

Thanks for the patience and support.

I ran CHKDSK For 9 hrs last night and while it sees the drive it won't actually load anything from it.
