Hi cwylab,
Since the light went out on the drive, it could be the power plug to the
drive which is at fault, in which case, you could use another plug.
Your drive controller or drive cable may be faulty or improperly plugged,
or, less likely, the power supply might be at fault. It's worth considering..
