New SCSI drive won't spin up!!!!



I just acquired a Maxtor 120mb disk drive (SCSI).  It looks ok (ie:No
holes, dents, or scratches) but it won't spin up.  Suggestions?

I've tried with and without the SCSI daisy chain cable.  No go.
Someone here at NASA has suggested flexing the motherboard (on the
disk) to see if a chip has become damaged and to see if it will make
it boot up.
