  1. How to repair a hard drive connected to Windows 10?


    My PC will not boot up. I get a blue screen that says it cannot load windows/system32/winload.exeI previously had upgraded the old HDD to an SSD. I used a tool provided by Crucial to move everything. I disconnected the old drive and have been using the SSD ever since. When the SSD failed to boot today, I reconnected the HDD and set the SSD as a second drive. The PC is currently booted up on the HDD. The SSD is visible. I ran a check through Explorer. It did not find any issues. I created a bootable USB repair drive. When choosing repair with that, it says the drive cannot be repaired. Is there

    :)

    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!
