So my SSD is just completely gone.
That is the first time a NVME drive or even a SSD died on me.

And of course I was slacking in the backup department so lots of my stuff is irreversibly gone.

But I have my new NVME now and and that is one way to get to a clean windows install.

RIP. People generally don't understand the importance of backing up files until they lose data. I lost plenty of things over the years but these days, I have a system. Important things like music, receipts, documents and such, I keep backed up on Google Drive backup. If it's sensitive, it's best to encrypt it before putting it on the cloud.

For things that aren't so important such as videos of tv shows, movies and etc. I have that backed up on multiple hard drives.

I am personally getting to the point where I will eventually get a NAS setup with probably around 20TB of storage in Raid 5 because of how important backing up files really is.
