I have a hard drive that no longer powers on anymore because i accidentally broke one of the 4 power pins on the drive. Before this happened it was fully functional its an IDE western digital from 2007 and all i want to do is take the data off. A tech told me i could use an ide power cord, cut it and connect the yellow cord to the power point or little piece of metal thats connected to the power pin where the broken is on the electric board. Now, my question is will this idea work or will it fry the drive.
