Similiar to what I had, I changed in the power management to not turn off idling HDD. Can hear the hdd like being turned off when the OS is still working right?

about the wd 640GB HD --- this is my suggestion ....

DON'T BUY IT !!!

I bought one when it baru came out, within weeks, HD starts to behave strangely.

Upon checking -- BAD SECTORS !!

C'mon la ! Bad sectors??

This is supposed to be a "perpendicular recording" drive, and still bad sectors?

Hmm, using it since August 2008. So far so good smile.gif Very satisfied with it.
