I have a dead 840 Evo drive that refuses to show up in bios or anything. I have tried powering it for 30 minutes without data hooked up a few times, still to no avail. is it just done for?

Probably. Try leaving it powered for a day or 2 with no data. If after that you get nothing, its a goner. On the other hand SSDs are ultra cheap right now. Great time for an upgrade.

Good thing is it is not mine. I don't own any SSDs yet. It belonged to my cousin he has had it for about 5 years maybe 6. He already replaced it and i was just trying to resurrect it and get data off it if possible and maybe using it myself if it still worked.
