I have a hard drive that a girl gave me to see if I could get anything off of it, because it stopped working in her computer. I have an external setup so I set up the HDD and my computer sees that there is a HDD connected, and it recognizes what kind and all that, installs drivers, and says it's ready to use, but then I can't find it in My Computer and my computer becomes very slow until I unplug that HDD.

I have tried all sorts of jumper settings, (it has 16 settings) and I haven't found one that works.

Is this drive truly dead?

The HDD is an IBM Deskstar (deathstar, I know) 07N6654.
