Hahaha! I remember when I worked as the Information Technology Admin for a company.
We had just acquired a new partner, and had to dump their data onto our servers.
Well, they had 7 backup tapes, all of which contained one backup, spanning the entire
disk set. I had - unfortunately - grabbed disk #7 thinking it was another disk I could
erase, and used it for one of my backups for our engineering department.
Imagine my shock when that tape backup was needed, and so I began the restore.
Once I inserted disk #6, and went to grab #7 next, it wasn't there...
Long story short, a backup company wanted $15k (yes, fifteen thousand US dollars)
to restore the date on the erased disk. We didn't pay, and I did
not get in trouble
