Just as something to check. Had an electronic instructor friend 
many years ago had an issue. Figured it was a bad cable to drive, 
so ordered a new one, but didn't fix problem, so he sent computer 
to shop. Got it back, and was informed it was a bad cable. The new 
one he got was defective. Don't know what connection your drive is 
using, but might want to check cable and connectors on both ends.
