(Solution found, get a new hard drive :) ) Hi Just a quick word from someone that has been through hel and back with SATA drives get yourself some of the data cable that have a clip to hold them in place and even then use a blob of hot melt glue on each connector to stop it moving i have has 2 drives fried by cheap data cables moving around in the connector . It has got the be the worst design for a data connection i have ever seen there was some crap around but the SATA ones take the untimat prize as the biggest junk ever designed Pete . -- Linux 7-of-9 3.2.5-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Feb 7 08:34:36 CET 2012 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) 9600B Quad-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
