Very good drives--but check your cables.  Already one person with data 
corruption on UDMA with an IBM drive (for the first time with THIS kernel)
turned out to have a cabling problem which was detected for the first time by 
the extra sensitivity of the kernel ide drivers.

True unless you have the misfortune to own WD.  They have 600 byte sectors to 
store the CRC sent from the mobo and feed it back--they do not do a CRC.
