Any data corruption or hardware damage from an unexpected blackout implies defective and totally improperly designed hardware.

Many assume unexpected power loss can damage a disk drive or its data. When does a disk drive first learn about power loss? When 5 or 12 volts start dropping to zero. All disk drives see a normal shutdown or unexpected township wide power loss as same. Data loss only occurred with and because of an obsolete file systems such as FAT.
