HDD shuts down power supply unit

August 25th, 2011, 10:40

Hi everyone. Sorry my bad English.

I have one problem with Maxtor 160GB. Computer can't start with it, but start without HDD. When I turn it on, power downs after 1 second. Short circuit?

I need to recover information on it, it's very important

I've never experienced this and I need you help.

Thank you
