Could a static shock cause damage to a docking station?

[slhardware]

I got a brand new docking station today. I took it out of the box, and then I took it out of the plastic bag covering it. As I was holding it after taking it out of the plastic bag, I heard a static shock as my finger touched part of the docking station. Is there any chance this may have caused any damage to the docking station?

Probably not, depending where you touched and whatnot.

It looks like one of the USB ports on the docking station is defective, possibly from that static shock. When I plug a USB drive into that port, I can hear the Windows "do dun" sound effect, but the drive doesn't show up in Windows Explorer. The drive shows up when I plug it into the other USB ports.
