This is the first time I am using SATA, and my drive came unjumpered by default. I think WD said that if it is unjumpered that I should have spread spectrum disabled in the BIOS. Well..... I installed the OS with spread spectrum turned on, currently it is off.. I am now getting complete lockups and poor performance sporadically. when this happens, the HD light is completely on.
Now the simple question is............ Would having spread spectrum on during the install affect the computer even after spread spectrum is turned off?
I really dont want to hear anyone elses theory on why it could be doing this, I have checked out EVERY other piece of equipment on the computer, and the only thing I have not been able to resolve is the *possible* HD problem.
