Help!

I inadvertantly tried to park the hard disk on an AT with an XT
diagnostics diskette.

Now the hard disk seems to be kaput.

Have I lost the data on the hard disk (I haven't tried re-formatting it yet)?

Is it really possible to trash the hard disk in this way?

This is an official IBM PC/AT and an official IBM diagnostics diskette(v2.07).
