I recently had an external hard drive which fell from the desk it was operating on, i then plugged it back in and proceeded to get 5 beeps from the hard drive and nothing being recognized in the computer, i figured it must have caused a loose connection so i disassembled the external enclosure and have now just place the SATA drive in a SATA hard drive dock which it now does 5 beeps again. The external hard drive was a Western Digital My Book 750GB and the SATA drivee is a WD700AACS WD Caviar GP.

If anyone could help me solve this problem it would be great
