I might be overthinking this, but I wanted to get your thoughts on whether I might have caused any short-term or long-term issues. I recently purchased a brand-new ASUS TUF RTX 4070 Ti SUPER OC Edition. While removing the GPU from the PCIe slot to access some cables behind it, I made a mistake...

Hey, I have both my original PCB and donor PCB for an old Western Digital WD6400AAKS. My goal is to get the data off this HDD, as it's from 2010 or so and I'm curious to see what's on it from back in my live music days etc. I thought I could DIY transfer the ROM/"BIOS" across, but this has...

While trying to remove the preinstalled M.2 SSD heatsink from my motherboard, I ended up stripping the screw as it was ridiculously overtightened. I then tried removing the standoff it was screwed into, assuming it was also screwed into the motherboard. However, the standoff had apparently been...

I spilt a bit of water on my keyboard a few months ago. It worked fine at the time, next day several keys were dead - F6, 6, Y, H and B - all in a line. I dried it out and months later there's no improvement. I didn't notice any damage at the time, but I thought I'd try swapping in some new...

The top row of my SK64 stopped working all of a sudden. I soaked the PCB in isopropyl alcohol, dried it and plugged it in, everything's normal. But the day after the top row stops working again. LEDs still work by the way. Can someone please help?

Hello! I was replacing the PSU in a build and assumed the SATA power connectors were interchangeable since it was the same brand PSU. Upon booting two of my (previously working) HDD were no longer recognized (could not see them in disk management etc.). Tried plugging them into another computer...

I saved up and bought a WD80EAZZ (8TB, Western Digital blue) last month. I was an idiot and didn't have it properly secured in my case. Long story short: the plastic support brackets broke off the hard drive's SATA connector, the pins at least look alright: I've scoured and seen some similar...

Hi, I have a WD120EMFZ that was perfectly working, and suddenly doesn't start. It doesn't make any sound, click or anything, and of course is not recognized by the system. Reading the forum it seems that If i'm lucky enough could be "only" PCB problem. The PCB part number is 006-0B40385...

Hi Dear Wizards, Some backstory, I was using the drive normally copying some items over when it suddenly self ejected with some power or usb warning i can't remember, and wouldn't detect. I could still see the drive in disk utility (MAC) but it can't be mounted (greyed out) I brought the...

Hi everyone I have a faulty seagate 320gb (ST3320613AS, pcb number 100504364 REV B) which is undetectable to bios, and has some needed data in it. In search of doner pcb, I came across a maxtor 160gb with almost identical label (except the logo) and same pcb number. So I'm wondering, can I use...

So I've been a major idiot and did this: http://www.hddoracle.com/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=2545 I used a Corsair PSU cable on a Seasonic Power Supply and very likely caused a short circuit on my SSD (Samsung EVO 850 500GB). This was the only peripheral connected to the "wrong" cable and caused the...

I was in a situation where I was trying to tighten a stripped screw with some tweezers and got some shavings on the PCB. I quickly used compressed air to blow it away, but I didn't double check and am not 100% if some shavings blew somewhere else on the PCB or not. I don't want to open up my...

I've got this used GPU which has some white stains on its back. What are those? I've searched the web and from what I understand they could be flux residues but I'm not sure. Any other idea? Looks like this GPU was removed from a working PC and it was still functioning when it was removed. Then...
