I've been working on this a lot today and it does seem the SATA2 drive is failing - everything else seems O.K. - I ran diskwarrior and it wouldn't recognize the SATA2 drive, also.
I tried the Seagate tools, but they only really work in windows and didn't work in virtual PC, either.
One other data point - my Sonnet SATA card shows the SATA2 drive as connected (solid green LED) and active (the amber LED is solid, as well) - this is strange because the amber LED should illuminate only when there is activity (it blinks for the SATA1 drive when there is activity).
Any other thoughts? I am about to journey to the store I bought the drive for a replacement.
Thanks again.
