Hi, I have a question about the slot where the usb cord fits into the external harddrive. Now I know that the other side of the usb cord is not usb. The usb side obviously goes into the computer, but the other side, whatever that side is called will not fit correctly. After closer examination, it appears the metal prongs on the inside of slot are bent. I tried to bend them back with no luck. Any suggestions?
