All of a sudden my 4TB G-drive stopped working (no power)

After a power failure like this, it’s smart to back up the drive immediately. Even when it starts working again, unstable or incorrect power can shorten a drive’s life without obvious signs. Stick with the exact rated power adapter going forward and keep a backup, because this kind of issue tends to come back when you least expect it.
