Hi again,
I am thinking the hard drive is damaged because of the defective cable (I have seen that more than once)
If it's not under warranty anymore, you have to open the case, get the drive out and plug it in the computer to see if it's still working. If your lucky, only the enclosure is damaged.
If under warranty, send it back for repairs.
