WD80EDAZ-11TA3A0 not recognized by motherboard, is this fix okay ?

My 8TB hard drive that I shucked isn't showing up on my motherboard. I've tried another HDD with the same SATA / PSU cables and that one is recognized fine, would removing the 3.3v pin that some cover with kapton tape permanently damage the drive at all? I see others saying it isn't an issue but don't want to lose any data. I just don't want to buy a whole role of tape I'll only use a sliver of.
