[18th Anniversary] Asus Black Pearl - P5k-Premium Testing Report

[fornowagain]

I have 2 SATA II harddrives, they are seagate 7200.10, they are both working perfectly in SATA II AHCI or IDE mode (not RAID) in my rig.

I had one and it wouldn't work with a Samsung Spinpoint, 16Mb Raptors or WD AAKS. Slow installs are the symptoms, if you get the OS in, sooner or later it starts giving iastor.sys/ATAPI errors, check the event logs. Changing ports makes no difference, fine for awhile then the errors return. That's with AHCI or Raid, nor was it cables or drives. They're all on an IP35 Pro doing just fine.
