Get some canned air and blow the dirt off of the sensor in the drive.
No change.

The drive is the coffee mug tray style. so even opening the plastic housing for the drive does not let me 'see' the sensor, but I used a lot of canned air and no change in behaviour....

Perhaps I have to go out to the drug store and buy one of those drive lens cleaner disks?


Have you tried removing/reseating the data cable on both ends? I've seen this work a handful of times. Also, SCSI or other? If SCSI, is it properly terminated, and with the correct ID? I once replaced a SCSI hard drive, and due to some technical change that completely baffled me, using the same cable, and ensuring IDs were all correct (unchanged), could not get the system to properly boot? In the end, a colleague with similar knowledge ended up relocating the SCSI terminator on the cable itself. No reason why it needed to be relocated, but that solved the problem.

Try cabling and see what happens...
