Some data loss due to database crash

Hi, one of the database servers crashed while I'm on vacation. I didn't have the tools with me to fix the issue immediately. Some files were lost due to inconsistencies in the database. If you are unable to download one of your files this is probably the reason. The data is not recoverable unfortunately. I will be removing the broken links next week when I return from Spain.

I would like to remind everyone that pixeldrain is only for sharing files, and that it's not a cloud storage platform (like mega or google drive). Files on pixeldrain are meant to be temporary.

Pixeldrain's storage system is still a bit rudimentary. I have some improvements in mind which should greatly improve its stability, but storing large amounts of data across multiple servers is a complex issue and it will take some effort to get it working perfectly.
