Hello, i recently made a huge mistake. I bought a universal power source, you know the one that allows you to change the voltage and such. and it came with little adapters to mach the device youre going to use.
well i screw up, big time!, i connected a USB hub to the power source but i think i change the polarity, you know, the - and +, and it damage one usb flash drive, one portable HDD and 2 out 3 usb ports of my imac.
i know it was a stupid mistake, and probably damage the ports in my imac. Does anyone can help me?
please!
sorry about my english BTW
