Does the problem damage the SATA device, or is it software? How does
this type of problem happen if it doesn't damage the device?
The asus boards have the Marvel controller. I wonder if using that
would be a good idea until the mobos can be replaced?

new silicon will not be available until February. It also appears to be a
longevity related problem.

If you just purchased a system powered by Intel's Core i5 or i7
chipset, get ready for a return or repair.
Intel has a chipset issue that affects the launch of Sandy Bridge.
