    Hard Drive is not working


    Hi there,


    My hard drive is not working, the reason I think is that I didn't eject it properly with safely remove hardware because I am in a hurry. The next day I plug it in, it's not working anymore and whenever I open the File explorer to check it, the file explorer as well is not responding. Is there any process I need to do to make my hard drive usable again? I have a lot of files in there that I need so if anyone here had experienced the same, will you please let me know how you fix it? thank you so much.

    :)

  2. 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!
