One more detail ... my IDE disk has only 1 partition ... NTFS ... I have a Windows XP there (which I haven't used in weeks).
I might have identified how the problem was originated (I can't be sure since it randomly appears). Several weeks ago I configured Azureus (torrent downloader) to save the downloaded files in a directory in the IDE disk. It seems that the freezing occurs (randomly) when I try to access (edit, view, copy, etc) for the first time (no problems the second time) the Azureus downloaded file(s); It doesn't matter if Azureus is still running or not (I exited the Azureus program). By the way, the downloaded files are Ok (Azureus verifies them after downloading and I re-check them with md5sum). Could the problem might be related to the NTFS read/write support ?? ... Azureus makes massive read/writes to the IDE disk (NTFS) As for myself, I re-configured Azureus to save the downloaded files in the SATA disk and I haven't had anymore problems (at least the last 2 days).
