in My Computer its a 160GB Maxtor 6Y160P0 IDE ATA 133 Drive. I can see it in device manager but when I go to restart the computer in freezes on primary secondary (This Drive) if I do a cold boot it works fine until about an hour passes and goes missing again Does this drive need to be RMAed ? I hope not I just bought it a coupple a months ago
