I wouldn't know if its your hard drives, but I have 2-10.2 WD hard
drives and linux installed like a dream, except in 7.2 beta1 (where it kept
crashing while trying to format the hard drive)
I've noticed that with a few people that I've helped out that have
gotten Signal 11, it's been a problem with Memory(RAM), this is just my 2
cents to try to help out.
