Any software - ANY software, depends on the drive still being "good", but unreadable for whatever reason. If you can't force it to be recognized from either a USB device or a direct IDE/SATA plug in at the BIOS level, the drive is physically bad, with bad ranging from corrupted firmware to a head crash, making the platters unreadable. Just keep that in mind during your diagnostics.
