hi,
after tolerating this problem for the past few months, i can no longer take it anymore. it started when i installed the new hard drive i bought. i got the WD1000 and set it as a secondary hard drive. my other drive, an IBM 13GB, is where i installed the operating system. the problem is that whenever i want to move files between the two, they would get corrupted or my computer would lock-up. this happens when i move lots of files totaling 100's of MB's, or single files at around 100MB and up. i've installed the latency patch already, but files still corrupt, and losing tons of files due to crashing is really starting to tick me off. moving single files one by one is no fun. please help me. is it because the IBM drive is 5400RPM and the WD1000 is 7200RPM? do i need some kind of cooling solution for the 7200RPM? should i install the OS on the WD1000? any help is greatly appreciated. thank you.
