I have an SSD and a HDD, which are both fried (I think).
SSD: Kingston A400
HDD: Seagate ST1000DM003
My motherboard is: MSI B450M Mortar
My PSU: Silverstone ST60F-PB Silverstone - Strider Plus 600W 80+ Bronze
My PSU was modular and I accidentally plugged the SATA power cable to the PSU in a wrong way. It was upside down. And I smelled a burning smell coming from the HDD once. I know, pretty stupid.
Both of them are not recognized in the BIOS on boot.
My best guess is that the PCB controller thing got fried that's why they won't be recognized anymore.
Can the drives still be saved? I don' really care much about the data.
I'm planning on opening them up to see the PCB stuff. Is there a way to know what really is the issue? These are the photos of the drives: https://imgur.com/gallery/oVCuZde
My motherboard supports hotplug, I will still have to give it a try to see if they will be recognized.
