   I sense that Arlen needs to understand grub's 3 parts better.  Maybe he   
   could visit the wp article and the grub docs in whatever depth   
   necessary.  He could also use some repair tools just to examine what he   
   has before he tries to take them apart and reassemble, such as supergrub   
   2, rescatux, or boot-repair from a live cd/usb.  Even a little hex dump   
   could see grub's part 1 'signature' in the mbr.   
      
   He has 3 tera worth of disks there, 2 WDs & a Tosh.  I would hope   
   there's enough spare space to move some things around.
