Hi Joel.

The drive still spins and is recognised in the BIOS. The problem is the Boot track is gone. I have loaded up Linux and had the drive plugged in and I could access the coco archive folders.
 So in the end it was just a simple faulty cable causing me the grief. But still have not attempted to hook up both my drives together yet. with my new boot disk as my Master, and the crashed drive as a slave unit.
 The last time I tried them both together. The new drive would not load up again. And at the time I used the faulty cable. So I'm hoping this time with the new cable that it will not corrupt the new boot drive.
