Hello, earlier today I shut down my PC. Opened the side panel to unplug my internal WD 3TB HDD and I could resit it as it was causing a vibration noise. However after I unplugged it and plugged it back in after readjusting I realised that the motherboard was still "on" and I didn't turn off the power from the PSU. Have I damaged my PC?
Unplugged HDD, PC shut down but PSU power switch still on.

nothing to worry about there was just come power leftover in the capacitors. if this happens again just hold the power button in on the tower for a couple seconds after switching off the PSU in the back
