Your Mac can be kind of a jerk sometimes ya know? I mean, it’s totally not your fault that you accidentally dropped that school report in the bucket then emptied the trash the day before it was due. But not to fear: Disk Drill for the Mac knows right where’s it been marked for deletion, and yanks it right from our hard drive (without boring any holes). And if you’re just buying Disk Drill, a deep scan should uncover just what you’re looking for. You need Disk Drill as assurance against unfortunate mishaps, lost files, and damaging deletions. Not only will Disk Drill protect your home folder, but it’ll keep an eye on your hard drive’s health so you’ll never have to worry about a dying disk. And if all goes haywire: just back up your documents to a disk image! It’s that simple, and Disk Drill comes in free and pro versions so you can decide what’s right for you. Super easy to use, we’re giving away two licenses to a couple lucky readers.

The Giveaway:

This isn’t our typical giveaway on Twitter, so listen up! We want horror stories on data loss, backup tips, or maybe a quick tutorial about data backup in general. You don’t have to write a lengthy essay, but a short paragraph in the comments will get you entered. There’s an important lesson here to learn kiddos – if you’re not already backing up your data, you should. With Disk Drill, you get an additional safety net that protects you from data loss and monitors the most critical component of your Mac or MacBook: the hard drive.

Leave your responses below for a chance to win one of two pro licenses! The giveaway ends this Sunday, March 27th.

Update, March 30th: While we’ve already contacted the two lucky winners, everyone can get a great discount on Disk Drill this afternoon on today’s MacStories deals. Just follow this link, and look for the promotional code that’s valid for today only (don’t worry - we’ve allotted enough time for your Time Zone). Cheers!
