    Wow! nagkakaroon ako ng idea dito. Ang galing.

    Pero kung nadadownload naman uli dyan, eh di doon na lang ako sa option na yun. Siguro naman mas mabilis magdownload dyan kaysa sa Pinas.

    If not, I'll go with deleting partition idea.

    Reply to @rbolante: Laging may bad experience kasi ako sa data recovery e. It's either partially recoverable or totally unrecoverable ang files dahil na-overwrite, or hindi 100% recovered ang file. Parang bringing back someone from the grave, parang hindi na sya yun. Zombie na yun!

    Reply to @freelancer_babe: re-download it is a good idea in itself. ang prob lang nun is pano kung wala nang nagsi-seed. sa laki ng collection ko i don't think i can rebuild it from scratch. i can share the list for those who are interested and i'm more than willing to share the files as well.

    Reply to @LokiJr: I've had this collection years ago kaya it's really hard to let go. Binuo ko sya from scratch. Nakakapanghinayang lng talaga na iwan. Yung mga porn siguro palalampasin ko na buburahin ko na lang but the good movies that I simply can't get rid of it.

    Hmm... still it's better to go to the safest route than to risk getting deported or worse even going to jail. We never know kung kailan sila maghihigpit. There are data recovery facilities around and their government could just easily pay experts and software just to find out.

    Just saying. Baka isa sa atin ang mauna ang case. Malaki kasi ang kapalit which is NOT worth all the trouble.

    Sad to say this is not that first time na may nahuling pinoy kaya mahigpit na silang mag check.

    Ang sakit naman nito for us proud pinoys.

    @rbolante - lahat nang klaseng porn bawal ipasok sa Australia and they also monitor yung mga nag-access sa ganyang sites so ingat pa rin.

    Sabi mo nga - Thanks be to God!!! I'm sure the Lord will appreciate if iiwas na lang tayo sa ganitong sites.

    You are so blessed, just focus on the good life ahead.

    I dunno, pero sa pagdating ko hanggang sa paglabas sa airport ni hindi ako kinabahan. Yun mga officers hindi sila nagch check isa-isa sa mga dumadaan sa paningin nila. Friendly pa nga eh. Although paulit ulit bawa't checkpoint tatanungin ka if you have anything to declare. Meron iba tatanungin ka do you have candies/lollies, tapos yun iba naman alak, tapos more than twice magkaibang tao tinanong kami if we have aircraft or duty free items. Kasi yun food galing plane yun onboard kailangan din i-declare.

    @Bryann, pano nyo binalot yung mga HDD's nyo para di masira sa check-in baggage? binalik nyo lang sa original box nila? kaso ang bulky naman pag ganun. hehe

    Yup ganun ginawa mo binalik ko sa original box niya. Bale 2 HDD yun + yun media player ko meron din 2TB inside. Yun check-in baggage ko is 1x Balikbayan box and 1x big luggage. Hand carry 1x laptop bag + 1x TNF backpack.

    NOTE:
    Oo nga pala, reminder ha.. if flying with Qantas, strict sila sa excess baggage kahit 1kg excess wala sila patawad. Max per bag is 23kg. Anything in excess you have to pay excess baggage which is A$35 per kilo. Meron ka choice to pay per kilo.. or pay per luggage with excess (A$50 per luggage with excess) upto a max of 32kg if nagbayad ka. If meron ka pa time before the flight, papayagan ka niya ilipat yun mga gamit from 1 bag to the other para isang $50 lang babayadan mo. Pero wala na ako time so ayun A$100 binayadan ko.
