If I leave my raid drive for about a day - or install something on it (so diskeeper takes more than a minute to defrag), then my mouse goes jerky and it crashes? It's really odd..? The drivers are two WD320gb/16mb/sata2.

It crashes as in windows hard locks.

Yeah, I'm using onboard (the JMicron controller on the Gigabyte DS3). If I install a few things and generally clutter the drive, THEN defragment - I get a crash (the mouse jerks across the screen and I get a crash).
 
It seems when the util is moving or defragmenting files, it creates the mouse jerk (both mouse and keyboard are on USB. I'm thinking that it maybe a conflict between the raid/usb drivers, although I'm not 100%.

So far using DirMS defrag it hasn't crashed, but it hasn't finished yet.
