    Just curious, what kind of work do you do? Im guessing something to do with computers or electronics considering you really know your shit.

    If you get a W/D, the Black series are good drives.

    Yeah I did some more reading and it would seem I am not the only one with the issue on this select drive.

    Seems like most ended up using it as a storage vs primary drive. The next drive I think will be a WD ^-^

    Thanks again for your help stranglehold.

    Found out something, Intel never went above UDMA 5 with their chipsets. Seems that since Sata drives came out they just never offered support above that in IDE mode. So running in UDMA 5 is nothing wrong for a Intel chipset. So that kinda kills the driver problem.

    Well would appear it did nothing soon as I loaded up a few games it started to do it again.

    Seems like after I get past 230GBs free space it starts to do this. I guess it will be stuck as a storage unit and I will purchase another primary later.

    Dont think there would be any performance gain, unless. Thought there might be some driver glitch causing it to run in UDMA 5 in IDE mode, with the hang and all. That why I thought you ought to try SATA mode.

    No it wont have any effect on your IDE drives.

    Just curious if I run the AHCI mode....will my pATA drive still be able to work as a storage drive? I use it for "back ups" every month or so. I leave it unplugged when not in use to save some life on it.


    Also I been reading a bit on AHCI while I am transferring stuff on to my back up drives and it claims there is no real performance gain by using it unless your running multiple drives/raid. How true is this?
