When I put it back into the snap server it seems to boot, but the System and Disk leds blink togther. I've copyed the first 50000 sectors to many different hds i had laying around and all the same result. Am I screwed?

I have just successfully debricked my 1100 250GB (Bad Sectors) with a 40GB using winhex... I had to copy the first 100,000(Dec) sectors before it would work.
Examinining the file system I see that the FAT of the file partition seems to be needed before it will boot properly. Also there is some files stored in that area that are nessisary. If at all possible I would copy the entire drive (winhex has the ability to write what it can from the bad sectors) and reinit the new drive when installed.
