So i was able to slightly restore one of the drives.
The western digital is totally dead. Complete head crash, wont even detect.
The other one will detect and slightly works. Im able to access and back up files but its making a loud roar and click sound every 10 minutes.
So I had a new question:
Is it possible to use an external hard drive to run windows 7?
Say for example:
I want to install 7 on a seagate 500GB expansion USB drive. Would it work perfectly?
Because it seems that its possible my power supply may be frying only internal drives. All my USB devices are fine.
Also that memory problem i posted about before, where it was at 99% usage, it seemed to keep going from 10% to 99% and back again. Possible power supply problem? Im thinking the power supply might be sending massive energy spikes.
