Harddrive Crash???

[Son-Of-Liberty]

Ok I have a apple G4 80 Gig server that held alot of info and i unpluged the backup power unit after shuting down the computer. And when i restarted it everything was gone. It was not showing the harddrive at all. I dont understand why this happen. My best idea in what happen is that when i unpluged the back up power unit it surged it and sum what erased something important causing it to not be able to read the harddrive. 😕 .

If anyone can offer any help it would be helpful!!😀

Not sure about Mac, but your BIOS detect that harddrive?

This is why power switches exist.
