Asus K8N-E deluxe problems with SATA Maxtor
Hi, I've a big problem with this motherboard. It killed me just now 3
hard disk in sequential way in 2 months and half! It always killed SATA MAXTOR Diamond plus 9 160 Gb. I've tested with utility Powermax from Maxtor, and they always give me bad code after some days they work in the pc I've tried flashing bios, in the last months I kept always up to date the bios when new beta was released, I've tried changing SATA address, SATA cables, but the result is always the same.. After some weeks, the hard disk dies.. The big problem is that I've 2 ATA HD (120Gb and 80Gb) and another HD SATA 120Gb installed in this system and they never gave me problems. When I install another drive, it dies. This on the internal SATA nforce controller, I've even tried to invert the SATA channel but the result is always the same: 160 Gb dies, sometimes in total way, sometimes only few clusters become unredeable and loss. This is a big problem, because I can't change hard disks one time a month.. |
