How should I respond to this?

I received this email...This hosting company completely destroyed nearly 10 years of gallery work. Over 30,000 gallerys online. 3000+ original templates. Thousands of hours of video editing work with a loss of over 200,000 uniques daily(nearly 50,000 of that quality targeted SE traffic). And the two guys that were taking care of it for me are both out of a job now.

After numerous requests for my data they never have responded until now.

How should I respond to their survey?

Minte, did they ever get your data back to you or just the dumbass questionnaire? Everyone really should perform their own local backups. I am guilty of not doing this frequently enough myself.

Any reason for this occurrence?

Sorry to hear this. I would talk to a lawyer.

And start backing up everything 3 times. Were you running a back up of the server like RAID?

Can you please explain the difference between "backup" and "RAID" ?

If you can prove they were negligent then reply via an attorney. But if you have no backups what so ever something tells me you wont get far with it.

man that just... sucks. Considering what you lost the only real satisfaction you could ever get would be monetary and while I am no lawyer I dont think that is very likely. Just take it as a messed up lesson and move on... don't forget to let everyone know what happened and which company it was

A backup is usually run at an interval like daily and all data is copied to a separate drive. There are different types of RAID. Stripes, mirrors and combinations of the two. Stripes are generally for performance, faster access. Mirrors are identical live copies. You need at least two drives to have any type of RAID array.

I remember in the days of Windows3.0 having to put together files recovered from a scandisk to get my work back. It was a PITA, but worth the effort.

You might want to gather those bits and pieces and see what is there. Also sounds like a data recovery service might be worth the money if it is just a drive that died.
