Focus Drive //e woes

[wkatz@nyx.net (William Katz)]

So I decided to turn on my Apple //e computer two days ago, after having 
it sit on my desk for about ~2 years.
Everything seems to work except one part... my Focus Drive //e!! :(

I turn on the //e, and for the first one or two seconds, it sounds like 
the Focus Drive will boot up (I can hear the hard drive whirring), but 
then the computer just sits there with the 'Apple //e' title on the 
screen.

Here are the specs to my //e:

Apple //e enhanced (with 1MB RAM - Applied Engineering's Ramworks III)
Apple //e color-composite monitor
duo-disk drive (two 5 1/4" drives, controller card in slot 6)
8Mhz ZipChip //e
Apple //e mouse (MouseCard in slot 4)
AE Serial Pro (in Slot 2)
Apple Super Serial Card (in Slot 1)
Focus Drive //e 170MB (in slot 7)
Kensington System Saver Fan //e
CH Joystick


I have tried a couple of things to fix this:
I have taken the duo-disk drive controller card out of slot 6, put the 
Focus Drive in slot 6, slot 5, slot 4. I tried "pr#7" from the AppleSoft 
prompt.

What happens after I start the //e now is, I press Ctrl-Reset then I type 
"pr#6" to boot into a ProDOS disk.  It will start ProDOS, then after about 
a minute or two, it will finish loading.

I ran the SlotScan program and this is what the output produces:

Slot 5:

	Device Size: 280 Blocks (140K)
Slot 7: SmartPort Card:ERROR [39]

Does anyone have any thoughts on getting my 170mb (172mb) Focus Drive //e 
working again?  I would prefer not to loose any of the data on it, but I 
suppose worse case senario would be a low level format of the ibm ide 
drive on the Focus Card??

SlotScan shows "ERROR [39]" on the hard drive?

What I have *not* done yet is try to unscrew the hard drive, then re-seat 
it on the Focus Card itself.  I have also *not* tried to put the hard 
drive in an ibm computer and see if any disk checking utilities would fix it?

Thanks to all for any help.
