    WD4000KS

    Theoretical limit, so.. in Theory it can run at 300mb/sec... but it runs at 62? My mobo supports 3Gb/sec, I find this a lil strange. Is Theoretical limit and Sustained speed the same stat? thanks for your help Street.

    WD4000KS

    WD4000KS

    Ok it's prob just me, I think whats making me paranoid is that in the specs it supports a Interface transfer rate (Serial ATA) of 300 MB/s (Max). I can't see that anywhere in the test results. Also, I ran what you said "Data LifeGuard Tools" it all looks fine, except it says "N/A" for...

    WD4000KS

    With that last screenshot, its unplugged - so you can see its still running very strange. The Diag utility shows no problems. I don't know what to do :( And your right about it saying NOT to plug both in. :(

    WD4000KS

    I plugged both the Molex 4 pin power connector and the S-ATA Power connenter in at the same time. (only just realised my mistake by looking it up) there was no warning or anything about this, as far as i know its only WD who supply both power ports? Think ive buggered it up? £160 down the...
