The total power of the supply is irrelevant as to the connector that
burned. The supply
only delivers what is called for.

More than likely the connector was not pushed in all the way, when the
drive was installed.

Otherwise it was loose pins


Yea, I agree. Should have made that clear in my post.




At any rate, thought I've seen burned or over-heated connections, I've
never seen one go up in smoke.
