Yes.

Now we have a few problems:

  • Uncle helped him set up a 2TB backup solution, or so grandpa claims. But the 2TB in a dock won’t mount, and I can’t see any backup app. No documentation on the matter, even though said uncle lives in Vancouver…
  • Grandpa has his accounting/tax info on there, as well as photos and recordings of his own flute performances.
  • He doesn’t have any offsite backups.

So it looks like my best bet, assuming the worst, is to clone my Win 7 VM onto a new hard drive, then see what I can pull off the “backup drive” and the internal…

Never did like that uncle.
