Then fill the pint glass up with lager.
But then you decide you want some more Guinness instead, so you search the glass of lager for the "missing" Guinness.
Guess what, it's gone!
Haha, that makes perfect sense!

Playing with Pcimag's great explanation trying to make it more data simulating:
fill a glass with 75% black marbles (data) and 25% white marbles (operating system) somewhat randomly mixed together. Empty the glass at least 25% to make room for os (white marbles) you are going to put in. The black marbles in the mix you took out represent lost data.
