In the case of water damage: don’t let the device dry out. Natural Disasters: Flooding, fires, or electrical surges can cause mechanical failures. Mechanical failures can be caused by trauma to the device, overheating, or wear and tear from long term use. Repeatedly applying power will exacerbate the damage and hinder recovery. It’s vital in this situation that you do not continue to power on the device. During a mechanical failure, your computer may not recognize the device, recognize it as the incorrect size, or prevent you from accessing your data.
