Lagging when uploading to FTP

Aight, this is a very odd issue I have here.
I'm sitting on some top of the line stuff here, still, my computer can't even play mp3's at the same time as I upload files (many small files) to a FTP!

It's lagging, just if you were streaming the file with a slow connections.

So what's my specs then?

PSU: Antec Truepower 480W
Mobo: ASUS A8N-SLI Premium
CPU: AMD 64 4200+
Memory: 1Gb Kingston ASUS verified memory, dual channel
HDD: Samsung SP2504C (SATA II and NCQ)
FTP software: FlashFXP 3.0 Build 1015

Actually, I think it's the HDD. Because since I installed the OS in it, I've had problems with my Photoshop which I'm working with daily. Never had any problems with my Seagate disc, but I actually bought this one to gain some kind of a performance boost, not very big one maybe, but a little. And what do I get? I get lagged mp3 files when uploading smaller files to FTPs! It's also lagging when I delete files from the FTP server, which also is weird since the server isn't local. In fact, my mouse cursor is lagging as well! I can't belive this...

I've checked the speed of all my drives with HD tach. The only concern there is that I think the performance is lacking when accessing the 200Gb+ areas.

Does anyone have any idea of what the problem could be? I haven't tried with my Seagate disc yet. It's a hell for me to change discs, so I would rather skip that part ;)

Thanks in advance!
 
I would check harddrives to make sure DMA is on and anythign else that can affect performance, I'd also look for some serious driver updates though. This sounds like a driver issue somewhere.
 
If NCQ is enabled for the disk, try disabling it. AFAIK, enabling NCQ has virtually no advantage currently, and I've heard of it drastically decreasing hdd performance in some cases -- could be the problem you're having.
