The undergraduate fileserver at UofA lost all of its files a couple of
years ago.  They
were in the middle of installing a tape backup drive so they could
take backups...
and somehow it trashed the whole filesystem!

They had a backup from 8 or so months previous, which they did
restore.  Assignment
deadlines were extended.  I'm not sure what the sysadmins did to the people who
claimed that that tapedrive was supported...

I also need to do something like that for myself.  I've nearly been
bitten twice by my
laptop's dying hd, which I am actually replacing tonight (yay).
