Hello, I just purchased a maxtor maxline III 250gig drive from overclockers to act as a second drive (not in raid).

Before installing this new drive, I have had no freeze ups.

Now, it seems that when using the new harddisk, for example downloading a file onto the drive, it can cause the system to freeze up with the display as it was just before it crashed. No BSOD, just a freeze.

Has anyone got any ideas ?

The system disk is on SATA chan 1 primary
The new disk is on SATA chan 2 primary
