Some of you may remember my PC's PSU blowing... and then again... and then what seemed like a full-on explosion. Anyway, the computer is fixed now but I still haven't got to the bottom of why this happened and I have major trust issues with the computer. So for now, I'm switching to a different PC. If that blows up, I know it's electrics in the room.
Because of what happened, I'm not using most things that were plugged into the old PC in case they were related to the cause. But I'm wondering about the hard drives. They're good big hard drives and I'm considering pulling them out and putting them into the computer I'm using. But I'm worried that something dodgy in one of those might be related to what happened.
To people who know computers - is my fear unfounded? Do you reckon there is no chance the HDs could have caused my computer to blow or am I right to play it safe and just avoid anything that is from that machine?
