So I asked MRT how it was even possible to cross the power.
They kindly explained it to me with this picture:
Its the card - out of the computer - with the power crossed.
Do they understand that this card is installed in the computer?
That means that the computer is powered-off
then the card is inserted into the slot and screwed in.
and the D-shaped power connector is inserted into the card.
Then the computer is powered up - its basically permanent.
You run the software, attach your seagate, and click power-on....or should I say FLAME-ON !
Once its setup - you don't touch it anymore - its been this way for months.
So they are suggesting that I must have randomly decided to disrupted the working
setup and replug the power to the card !?
yeah... right... its either that or their new cards protection circuit didnt work
nah couldn't be that...must be stupid end-user... china design is perfect.
So to all the other cards that fry the same way - it will be the same answer.
Here for you enjoyment is a helpful guide in how to cross power !
