I know this sounds very stange, but I have 4 HDD's that seemed to fail at the same time. I was moving everything into a new case, and when I want to turn on the computer, everything was going fine until the message came up "insert bootable media and restart computer". I tried again and the same thing happened. I pulled out all the hdds and tried an external reader. When I went to power them on, I heard a clicking sound, and my laptop would not recognize it. I tried another hdd to make sure that the reader worked, and that was fine. I plugged them back in the computer, and went into the bios, and they were all there. No raid. Any suggestions?

Some kind of surge from the power supply?

Would the mobo be able to recognize them though?
