Dead Hard Drive

My OS crashed on my HP Pavilion p7-1380t Desktop PC and the HP recovery tool wouldn't let me backup my files for some reason. I attempted to backup my failing hard drive using a SATA to USB cable during that process I may have killed it.  After plugging it in I went in and tried to access the drive and the system froze.  After rebooting the drive will no longer come up.  I plugged it back into my motherboard and the computer doesn't detect it I think the MBR is shot. What should be my next course of action?

 

Update:

 

Hard Drive is not dead but is completely wiped.  How can I get my system restored to default without any recovery media?
