Well, after getting clicks on my IBM Deathstar for about a week, i ordered a new HDD. But today i right clicked on a file, and tehen my computer randomly rebooted, and then the HDD wasn't found. I was sure it was dead, but i just kept restarting my computer hoping it will work once again. It booted into windows, then crashed again. Then i tried again, and it finally loaded windows, very very slowly i might add. Well, my hdd should be comming from newegg hopefully tomorrow, unless hurricane frances delays it. So my question is, should I just leave my computer on till the hdd arrives, or would turning off my computer risk the chance of the hdd not turning on again?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

uhh, if it is your main drive, I would recommend turning it off, personally. Rotating whilst things are dying and possibly flying around in there is bad. However, I think you're basically f*cked either way 
DAMN YOU DEATHSTAR!
