hey guys,
I touched my hArd drive PCB but I didn't feel any shock. I haven't used it yet but I wanna know if it is still working or not.
It's WD blue 1 TB
 
Solution
Only way to know is if you plug it in. If you don't want to leave it on for long, Go into Bios, and check if it's there.

Otherwise just let it boot and quickly check if it's there. If your operating system is on it, then just check if it boots :)

HAHAHAHA actually you're right. I haven't bought the rest of my PC yet but I have nightmares about ESD so I wanna make sure nothing has happened.
