Hey dripcan, make sure you check logic voltage. Very important to have 4.8-5.2 vdc. This is extremely crucial with that system. I could see the power supply going slightly out of whack after sitting so long. I have had wierd things like a blank screen happen and found low voltage on the logic end being the issue. If that's not the confirmed issue via voltage check it is okay to initiate the drive versus reinitiating the drive.
