I've lost 3 harddrives in the last 12 months, and it is starting to piss me off. Can any techfaggots give me some tips on how to stop this from happening?

3 harddrives 3 different manufacturers one was a HDD one was a SSD one was a SSHD all are now dead in the water and are not even recognized as drives by any motherboard. I am assuming this is from glowniggers because otherwise I have the worst luck with computers. I am also techtarded, and so maybe I am just doing something wrong.

Any tips are appreciated.

+1 here. I am betting your PS is jacked up. Ive seen this happen in friend's systems.

You can test all lines with a multi-meter but its probably just easier to get a different PS. Dont skimp on the cost, its one of the few things that will really keep your system working well.

I had one that was going bad and the "sleep" functionality stopped working correctly on my system and would do odd stuff. Replaced the power supply (and nothing else) everything is back to normal. Thats on my old i7 rig and was years ago. System is still going strong.

A multimeter might report the voltage is correct, but under load it may still drop
