So your no big Maxtor fan then? :) Do you think the drives had compatibility problems with the controller(s)? Or maybe a driver issue? Kind of hard to believe that so many drives are just faulty.. Btw, I used this drive with 5.4 release (It think) on another controller, but It was one of those cheap Sil controllers, and I got the usual* problems.
