I added a 320g Barracuda recently, and for now it's just running as an extra drive. What I've noticed is that sometimes, Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer will suddenly stop responding, as if it's waiting for something. Thing is, I can open up a new instance of Windows Explorer, and those work fine. Except when I try to click the new SATA drive on Windows Explorer.....It also freezes up, as if it's waiting for something. When I reset the comp, everything is fine again.
I'm not sure if these are related, but I have my comp set to hibernate after a few hrs. When I woke up yesterday morning, I saw the comp was still on. I moved the mouse, the monitor turned on, and I saw that the computer had frozen on the "Preparing to Hibernate" screen. This is all only since installing the new drive. I can use it for hours it seems with no problems though. Wonder what's happening here?
