hmm... dunno wor..

u got check ur power option setting??

dun let ur hard disk sleep..

usually, vista or XP, default setting will let hard disk sleep after 20 minute idle..

i never let my pc idle, even monitor, hdd or power down... all of it i set to "Never"... that's why i'm curious coz my previous HDD didnt show this idle...

its not d symptom...the problematic firmware will just render ur hdd undetectable into normal start-up.
try donlod hdd-health n seatool for windows,good measure 2 see d health of any hdd
i personally use system mechanic

i hope it's not the firmware problem... i'm gonna crazy if my hdd dead coz so many important stuff in it... the most is my son's pictah since born until now..
