Yes, I have checked to make sure all the pins are there and in good condition, which they are.
You are right, and this is why it has been annoying me so much. There seems to be no logical reason why my IDE drives would stop working just by removing and replacing a CD Drive. Is it possible that ESD could travel down the IDE cables and damage the ports? That is about the only thing I can think of, even though I am careful to try and ground myself on the computer case all the time.
