    I have forgot and left my AW17 R3 plugged in overnight. Morning when I have turned it on, there is no display. Laptop was booting as I can see from the keyboard lighting turning on. But no output on the display.
    I have removed the hdd. Then the display turned on. And replaced the hdd again. Now everything works fine.

    Does anyone know why this might have happened? Is the power not sufficient for this extra ssd that I have put in? Or is it something else? Shall I go ahead and make a replacement of my laptop?
