I beg to differ. The drive is brand new and fine. Took me some days to
work it out, as the issues do not present themselves in Windows. The
issue is dodgy drivers and firmware in linux for the SATA controller on
this motherboard.

Gb/s controller (rev 10) (prog-if 01 [AHCI 1.0])"
Here is a more detailed snapshot of the controller from lspci
