I made a little mistake, I have an internal Blu Ray player connected to a SATA Data Cable and a SATA Power Cable. I shut down the PC - all off , but forgot to switch off the EVGA PSU, and then went and unplugged both the power and data sata cables.
So my question is - if the PC is shut down properly, but not switched off, either on the PSU switch or the mains socked is there live power in the cable?
Just a bit worried that could damage anything. The sata power cable is very tight so although I do try to pull them off straight there is a bit of a wiggle to get it off .
I assume if anything was going to short out either the psu would shut down or I would see sparks lol?
Thanks
