Drive is toasted. If it's detected by BIOS, you might be able to use a disk utility to recover some of the data. Otherwise, you might as well take a hammer or drill to it & toss it in the recycling.

-- Sections of the physical platters are damaged
-- Read heads are no longer working
-- SATA/IDE interface on the drive has failed


Those are just a few reasons for a hard drive to fail. Knowing the exact reason yours failed can only be determined by disassembling it & examining the components, but doesn't really help with the issue of whether you can recover the data or not.

I'd first suspect that 450w Mercury PSU of yours.

Yeah...once is a bad hard drive, twice could maybe be another lemon, but 3 hard drives means it's not the drives. I'd lean towards the PSU, too.

Almost certainly the drive controller board has fried if they're not detected by bios at all - & that is 99.99999% likely to be PSU related - unless you plan to keep burning money on drives I would suggest your PSU goes in the nearest trash can.
