another one, please? one of my HDD's i think is corrupted or such..my system cannot read it's location ..and i plan to have it replaced..would it be ok if i just simply turn off the pc and disconnect all the cables from the hdd and just pull it out? would such an action not compromise the performance of the pc? thanks again and more power.
