Subj : Grrrrr... To : DIGITAL MAN From : MIKE POWELL Date : Fri Apr 22 2005 01:14 pm >I have a dead DiamondMax Plus 9 (80GB) sitting right here. It (and the PC power >supply) died when I touched the computer case and discharged static >electricity. With a "pop" the computer turned off and wouldn't turn back on. >Replacing the power supply allowed it to boot again, but the Maxtor was dead. >Funny enough, the primary hard disk in the system (a Quantum Fireball) was just >fine. I had a Gateway that suffered a similar fate. As was the case with your PC, the power supply would not turn back on, but the Quantum Fireball was fine when I moved it to another PC.
