    Hi! I have a strange problem: one of my HDD's probably corrupted, because it didn't get damaged physically, but one day my PC didn't boot up (it stays on the booting screen infinitely and the loading sign is moving, so it doesn't freeze). After I disconnect the specific HDD, my PC boots up just...
