1. I don't give a hoot about the molex connector. I'm saying that the modular jack that connects to the PSU itself should be a standard. NOT the molex. Why would I try to discuss why standards are great then use molex as an example of why it's great when if I was talking about molex connectors? I'm talking about a standard plug that goes from your PSU to your modular cable. That "keyed" connector you are referring to is proprietary. My comment was solely that the PSU industry needs to establish a standard for that, and use a hard plastic. Some brands use a flexible plastic that is so flexible even though it's keyed you can still install it wrong.(yes, the plastic was THAT flexible!)
2. I'm not trying to proclaim it failed. I'm trying to proclaim it failed EXACTLY like yours did. That's what I'm trying to prove. I know it's going to fail. I want to see HOW it fails. Comprehension.. it's a beautiful thing.
3. No. I'm not implying anything at all whatsoever. I'm simply saying that you might have realized after the fact you did something. I'm not making any assumptions whatsoever. I wouldn't have mentioned(or even considered)you plugged in the power conector to data because that would be pretty low(and stupid). Honestly, I don't know if I could have thought up your scenario as a reason for the failure.
You're exactly right. I shouldn't have commented in this thread at all. I try to avoid threads that have no question asked of the forum. All you did was tell us a story. I prefer to spend my time answering questions of inquisitive minds instead of reading "the story of my life". Unless it's something that someone screwed up because you COULD plug it in backwards/make a false assumption/realize the manual was wrong after you received the product/etc I don't really care about other people's stories. I hate reality TV and I hate those TV shows that want you to spend 30 minutes catching up on the latest news of the hollywood stars. What was the greater good from this thread in the end? You have the same thing you had before. 1 good PSU and 3 bad SSDs. There's nothing the forum did you couldn't have done yourself.
Honestly, you're only guilty of being honest when you called OCZ and told them what happened. If you had lied and said "they just stopped working" they would have RMA'd it and you'd have new drives. That's thety part that really sucks IMO. If your dumb you're dumb enough to get a replacement. But if you're start, your dumb enough to be honest. Crappy world we live in.
When I look at this thread it seems you(computurd) and I don't seem to understand what we're trying to convey to each other. You're not an idiot, but I'd love to clear the air. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk in person, I'll give you my phone number. I'm in your time zone(I think). I'll be gentle.. I promise. LOL
