yesterday my ssd end its life because of power failure at home (@&%"£!%$£&**(@)
i lost 1000 hucs because i had a wallet backup old 2 weeks
ssd was an external drive with usb enclosure, anyone know if there is a way to recover data? windows see there is a drive but don't recognize it, i fear some hardware is broken :/
putting apart my jinx, i had to download blockchain from chain.huntercoin.org, a bit slow but done its job well, we could find some mirrors when more people will be interested in playing.
The problem arises when i tried to copy the files contained in the archive, to my final folder: don't know if it's only a window or 7zip issue, but i wasn't able to browse the other archive contained in the main archive (double compressed file), i needed first to uncompress the main file, then open the decompressed file to browse it and select files to extract.
In my case then it went worse, because i have TEMP dir set to a RAM Drive, and the program didn't allowed me to extract directly files from archive to final directory, but required to write to temp disk and there wasn't enough space, so i ended up extracting a file at a time.
@ domob: any chance just put just single compression? i know you hate windows but majority of pc users are on windows and it isn't really handy to have to decompress twice to be able to select files inside and move them to the final directory. anyway i think next time i'll download directly single files you provide on ftp, should be better.
thinking about it, i could try to implement an automation in my client to download blockchain in the ME folder, could be nice for first time users so i could autosetup settings and configure my client easily, yesterday i've been witness about how people find difficult to setup what the game requires (not just my client, but the whole huntercoin things).
The victim that's reading this forum know what i mean
