Power Adapters Used with IBM RDX Back Up Disk Hard Drives Recalled Due to Shock Hazard
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
A plastic weld on the power adapters can fail and allow two parts to separate, exposing live electrical contacts. This poses a shock hazard to consumers.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the power adapters and contact your IBM service provider to determine if their adaptor is involved in this recall. Consumers with the affected adapters will receive a free replacement adapter.
