Hi guys,
This is a new one on me, never had this issue with any HDD in the past.
I recently replaced 2x 1tb samsungs with 2 x 3tb seagate drives and I have noticed with CrystalDiskInfo that the C7 Ultra DMA CRC Error Rate is going up on both drives. I use one for storage and the other as a sync'd back. I left the backup running overnight and the drive its copying too has gone from 8 to 3B.
From what peoples posts say its a count of errors the drive has recorded of the data going on it? and usually due to bad cables?
I have changed the sata cables for brand new Silverstone CP07 cables and its not helped.
I am using an older motherboard, Asus P5Q deluxe so am using SATA II connections not III but I wouldnt have thought that would cause an error? The boards been fine, as I said never had this issue. I also moved the connections used on the board to see if that made the issue disappear, it did not.
Should I RMA the drives?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
