    BSOD when connecting external HDD


    i am gettting a BSOD as soon as i plug in a external HDD in the front of my computer

    NOT USB External HDD

    i mean like external bay HDD the ones you can put inside your PC
    But because i can open the flap on the front of my PC i can connect 2 HDDs in there
    because mine is a gaming PC

    i have had this PC just a few weeks and everything was working fine on monday 15th june 2015

    i do daily scans for virsus and stuff

    But since wednesday 17th june 2015

    every time i connect any HDD i get a BSOD

    but yet i freshly reinstalled windows 7 with nothing installed like i just installed windows and then let it start up Like a fresh fresh install and connected the external HDD and gave me the BSOD and i am thinking how can that happen if i just freshly reinstalled windows ?

    this happens with any HDD i connect the same thing happens just gives me BSOD

    even with windows 8 when i connect any external HDD i get BSOD
    well on windows 8 it said crictical process died
    and then restarted the computer

    But on 7 it just gives the BSOD

    Even in safe mode when i connect any HDD it gives me the BSOD

    i have fully updated all drivers and windows updates and stuff
    still no luck i dont know what is causing this to happen ?

    all i have is an internal SSD that is running windows

    This is just really strange as all HDDs were working last week and now all of them are causing a BSOD every time i connect one

    All drivers are up to date and so on and fully up to date with windows updates so i dont know what is causing this BSOD every time i connect any of my external HDDs

    any help would be most greatful thank you !
