    Question Overvolted an HDD and now it's unallocated

    It has outdated data in it for which it is the only location. But it is good for my records to recover it. Therefore I suppose it is not exactly a backup. There is a little hole in one of the ICs near the power connector (see picture above post). The top of it says RT8284. Researching it...

    Question Overvolted an HDD and now it's unallocated

    Wow!!! Thanks. That’s good news for me. I don’t have a backup because this drive is actually my backup drive. It is a 4 tb drive and DMDE is showing that there is an NTFS 4K format in it. See the screenshots attached of DMDE and the board that is part of the enclosure. . free private image hosting

    Question Overvolted an HDD and now it's unallocated

    I accidentally supplied 48v to a 12v external HDD. Heard a spark and smelled burning. Took it out of the plastic and plugged it directly to SATA. Disk management shows one partition as RAW and the other as unallocated now.

    Which liquid cooling to get?

    I have a i5 4690k and I want to overclock it. I want liquid cooling because I can overclock even more and my case doesn't have great airflow. I am looking for probably a closed loop system with a 2 fan radiator. I've looked at the H100i and it seems ok but it is from 2012.
