Bugger.
For some reason after moving home I now have 2 dead hard drives. Both are Samsung HD103UJ 1Tb drives and it appears that a little black thingy near the sata connections on the pcb has burned on both.
Could it have something to do with the fact that I plugged them into a powered USB hub? Or could it be a faulty power supply (I swapped the plugs around when one wasn't working and then the other stopped)
Is there anyway of me getting the data off these or are they a write off?
I know I should have backed them up, but I was too cheap to buy another 2Tb of storage.
