Did I kill my HDD?

[Guest]

When I killed my A7V mobo, the pc was on and I plugged and unplugged my HDD from power supply! Did I kill it? after that when the pc boots for those 5 seconds the HDD lamp (this orange one that shows when HDD works) doesn't light on anymore! It did begore when I turned the pc on! or is it probobly the mobo is way too screwed?

Although the only way to find out for certain is connecting it to a working system, I would say no, since a mere disconection *shouldn't* damage the HDD - but if it caught some dirty power...
The HDD lamp light comes from the motherboard (there is a connector to plug the wire) - and if the mobo is ruined it probably stopped working.

I think I did that some time ago, told the store it was like that, of course I acted like I new nothing and never touched it. You might have burnt the card in it, check in another system too.

Burnt my cookie overclocking!
