So for the past 4 months my Toshiba External Hard Drive has been working perfectly! Last week I tried to access it as it's always on and in my desktop, and I couldn't access it. I looked at it and the blue light isn't on and theirs no sound coming from it, basically it's dead. Now I have way too much stuff on this to just return it or to move onto another one. So I assumed it was the power cord, and bought a new one on Amazon for $25. Got it today, tried it out, and still no power...Is it something with the USB cord or is it something internally since I now know it's not the power cord/AC adapter? If it's the USB cord, should I just purchase a new one? Or should I open it, which voids the warranty, and put it into my actual pc? I don't know how to do that so if you prefer I do, can someone link me a tutorial? Anyone who can help, I appreciate it. Thank you.
