First thing you should try is replacing the SATA cable to that drive.
Yeap, please apply some hardware debugging techniques - replacing /
reseating SATA cables and connecting it to different power connector.
But it's disturbing to see machine lock up even if CRC error occurs.
sata_nv non-adma interface locks the whole machine up too after certain
error conditions but I thought adma was saner than that. I hope we can
work around this somehow.
Thanks.
I have just replaced the cables with brand new ones, still no change the
machine freezes ~10min after boot.
Sometimes I even have to completely power down the machine to be able to
boot again.
Power problems would be another possibility..
