I have windows xp on ssd which is my primary drive, then I have two wd black caviar drives one is 2TB and it is working fine, while the other is 1TB and it started to be super slow. The drive seems to not have any health problems, I copied all the files from it successfully only problem is that it can like totally stall windows while it is busy. The drive didn't have cache enabled so I enabled it, but it didn't solve the problem, then I uninstalled the driver and now it installed as "disk drive" its not "WDC WD1002FAEX" anymore, however that didn't make situation any worse or better. The performance seems to be jittered it is constantly going from full speed to as low as 0mb, while the other 2TB caviar does normal performance without jitter.
