    Chances are you're talking data recovery, though it depends on the specific nature of the failure. If you can find a similar drive you can sometimes swap circuit boards, but especially on slim laptop drives that's a pretty unlikely scenario.

    Yeah. A data recovery service will cost you at least a few hundred usd.

    I guess we'll just have to go back on vacation this year and duplicate the pictures.

    Step 1: Go to https://photos.google.com
    Step 2: Drag and drop photos on to web page

    Edit: Apparently there is an uploader? I can't get to the page right now, and I don't have a Windows computer to use it on at home, so I know nothing about it other than a help page says it exists: https://photos.google.com/apps

    HDD Died between step 1 & 2. Literally the same day I uploaded them from the camera. Normally I don't delete them off of the camera right away... I guess I should stick with that.
