Found a loose SATA cable that fixed my random blue screens

Last Tuesday my PC kept crashing during video calls, so I opened the case and spotted a SATA cable barely hanging onto the drive. I pushed it back in and the blue screens stopped completely after three days of testing. Has anyone else had a simple cable fix solve a weird problem like that?

Huh, nice find. Yeah loose cables are sneaky little gremlins.

Those gremlins got me once during a presentation and I spent 10 minutes panicking until my coworker just plugged it back in and I felt like the biggest idiot.
