My brother-in-law was helping me repair my computer, and in the process managed to cause a problem with one of my two harddrives in a RAID.
The hard drive's SATA connector broke off in the connector cord. The plastic covering of the SATA pins is what broke off in the cord. In his attempt to reconnect this broken bit (not realizing what had happened), he broke off one of the pins and bent another.
HELP!
What can be done to mend this, and is the data retrievable? Is my hard drive ruined? Is all the data on my RAID lost?
