Reported risk: This recall involves power adapters sold with IBM RDX removable back up hard disk drives. The data storage devices were sold with a power adapter that fits various country specific plugs. "Hon-Kwang Electric (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd" is printed on the adapters. IBM and RDX are printed on the back up hard disk drives. Hazards: A plastic weld on the power adapters can fail and allow two parts to separate, exposing live electrical contacts. This poses a shock hazard to consumers.
