I have just moved and one of my 4 computers wouldn't power up, so I re-seated the CPU and it powered up fine. However, I looked down to see my main hard drive smoking. I quickly pull the power plug. Maybe 4 seconds passed. I then pulled the drive and put it in an external enclosure to test it and it won't even power up. I really, really, really need some of the data off that drive. Is there a possibility that the power portion or circuit board is fried yet the data might still be there that I could somehow access it?
I have backups of most things, but alas, not everything. I'm looking for good news if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks
Brent
