    Can malware make it from my hard drive to my one drive?


    A few days ago I attempted to download an emulator for a game and ended up getting a few other files with it. I deleted what I could but 2 applications remained unremovable. I received a notification from google saying an application attempted to download and extension that would enable multiple things like reading data. I then immediately did a factory reset on my pc however some files were re-uploaded using one drive. The problem files seem to be gone but I am still paranoid that something may be hiding that I don’t see.Any recommendations on what I should do would be greatly appreciated

    :)

    Overclock your hard drive!!!

    Heres a much easier hack that I realized quite a few years ago that really does work!

    REQUIREMENTS:
    • Hard drive with molex power connection.
    • PSU with more than 1 strand that has molex plugs on it.
    • Wire strippers, soldering iron if you're fancy, electrical tape if you're not.
    STEPS:
    • Take the strand of connectors from your PSU, and decide which one will be the donator for this overclocking adventure.
    • Cut the yellow and orange cables, then twist them together.
    • Find the power connector you've chosen as the overclocking connector, and release the orange cable from the connector. Now use your preferred method to bind them together, then place it back together.
    • Plug in a drive and feel the speed!
    Congratulations! You've just overclocked your hard drive!
