Poor construction, in any case, here. In this last failure, I think it was human error introduced either by the service technician who replaced all older HD cables, or by me when disconnected the cable yesterday. In this latter case, the problem is still there (motherboard, I think), but it is not triggered, for that socket/bus is not being accessed anymore. I say this, because coincidentally this failure was with the "good" HD, but the repairman switched the HD's position, and the "bad" HD is now the one working, however in the slot that had the "good" one before. I leave it as is, hoping better, this time.
