Have ust found this in the logs - does this mean the disc is dead?

Subject: Missing hdb
Hi all,
We had a power failure a couple of days ago, since then one system has
been behaving strangely. It initially refused to boot and asked for a
'System Disk' - the message you get if you elave a non-booting floppy in
the drive. This persisted for over a day. The system is alos located
remotely from me, so I went there today, amazingly as I walked into the
Data Room the boot suddenly started to work and it started up fine -
except - it cannot find the second HDD (hdb) where all the data from the
intranet (moodle) is stored. It insists that there is no hdb - the mount
command fails and fdisk cannot find it either.
Unfortunately I did not notice this until I had left, is there anything
I can try before I drive back to the system and start to poke around in
its innards? (It is at work and I am on holidays but have remote access)
The OS is FC3
