This, however, would not account for the fact that now Robert has a drive
that won't even spin up (making it an expensive door stop or paper weight).
This is definitely a hardware problem. If it was a fudged directory, at
least he should be able to format the drive and install a clean system on
it.

It sounds as if TTP4 did something to the drive firmware. Very strange....!
