Yeah.. I'll make a backup from the more important movies but most of them can be downloaded again thankfully.
It's an internal sata drive powered by the PC PSU .. I have an old dock station I used to connect an old HDD to.my pi..I'll try to use it and mount the drive using USB port to see if the problem is electrical. I've suspected the PSU could be the issue and I don't know the exact power it provides. Lsblk shows the sda drive..fdisk -l does not since I unmounted the device. I've just installed smartools but I'm getting a fail inquiry message so I can't really tell.
