Oops, missed that. I'll see whether there's IRQ storm going on. >> Ah.. another thing. Sometimes when I swap two drives, sata_nv fails to >> detect the new drive.

This is a bit tricky. I'm not sure whether it's sata_nv's fault or other drivers are working out of dumb luck. I'll reproduce the problem and post the log when I get some time.
