Have you messed with any cables lately?  I recently had the same problem while 
installing a new harddrive; I needed a power connector, so I unplugged my B: 
drive - but forgot to disconnect the data cable as well.  I had your problem 
until I realized what I had done & disconnected the ribbon cable.
