check to see if the USB3 headers from the case is connected to the motherboard.

Sometimes it just remains undetected, sometimes a prompt appear telling that the HDD needs to be reformatted, some other times it works but has a tendency to 'unplug' itself randomly. The brand is Ministation

Do you also encounter these issues when using other USB devices in the 3.0 ports, like pen drives?cpd2009 Wrote:How does your external HDD behave when it's plugged into USB 3.0, and what particular brand is the drive?A bit various.

I tend to yell and pound the desk in frustration or something like that, e.g. in a video game I find hard to beat, or when I express intense disgust or contempt over an issue.
I feel ashamed for admitting this, though I'm not sure if I entirely should be. I have never broken any of my computers outright because I got frustrated or angry with Windows or some other issue, but many devices ranging from mice to keyboards have been damaged or destroyed because of me.
The most recent victim is the wireless keyboard and mouse for Audrey. The Ctrl key never really worked due to how the keyboard itself is setup, but it frustrated me to the point where I basically mashed the key with lots of force. I forgot there was an open container of sweet tea on the small TV dinner stand and now the number pad is nearly unusable. Even if the keyboard electronics are still functional, the keypad is toast without opening the keyboard up, disassembling all the affected keys and wash them down. I also can't simply pour water over the keys to loosen them, since that is stupid and it will destroy the electronics outright.
I feel awful, and I'm worried eventually one of my own computers will be destroyed because of my anger control problems.
