I agree it maybe a power supply problem. If the drives work then do not this could be the issue.
The CRC error you are talking about. Was this on the IDE drive or on the C Drive? You might want to pull out the IDE drive and put it in a firewire or USB box and see if it fixes the problem. You do have a strange setup going SATA/IDE/SATA. But, It should work.

I have 4 hard drives in my system. *Disk 1 Sata Raptor Raid Striped Set drive letter = c *Disk 2 Sata Raptor Raid Striped Set *Disk 3 IDE WD drive drive letter = d *Disk 4 WD Sata drive drive letter = e Drive letter D disappeared twice from my system in the past week. I'd reboot and it would show up again under my computer, disk manager, etc. However, when I try to copy data from d to C, I get a CRC error and it won't finish copying. I thought D was dying. I ran WD tests on it and it came up no problem. However, I just opened their data lifeguard tools again and now drive E shows up as failing SMART status. It was passing earlier today. When I run a quick test on it I get "Status code = 04 (unknown failed test element), Failure checkpoint = 64 (SMART attribute test). So does this mean that Drive is is the culprit? If so, why would D be disappearing? Thanks, Chris
