While maybe just a tad melodramatic, this scenario does happen! I know this for a fact as a few years ago I experienced it. I had three hard drives in my system at the time and two of them held my primary data running in RAID 0. The end result, all was lost and could not be recovered. Had I followed a common sense backup regime, I could have simply replaced the drives and restored my most recent backup and been back to fragging bad guys in an hour tops. Instead I lost everything and had to start over again from scratch. I was a true nonbeliever in Murphy's Law and now I'm one of it's biggest supporters.
