More Information

Hi,

 

I bought the following system:

 

1 x Video card: BFG GeForce 8800GTS OC 640MB DDR3, 2 x DVI
1 x Motherboard: Intel DP35DPM
1 x Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750, 2670 MHz, S.775, Box
1 x Antec Tower SONATA 3, EarthWatts 500W
1 x RAM: Kit Dual Channel Geil 2 x 1GB DDR2, 800MHz
2 x HDD Western Digital Caviar SE, 320GB, SATA 300 MB/s, 16MB

 

I use RAID 0 stripe, I make 2 partitions(a system partition - 70 GB in size and the a data partition - 570GB ) and I have the following problem: when I want to format the second partition(the bigger one) it freezes at 33%. I tried to split the second partition in 3 smaller partitions (lets say partition 1, partition 2 and partition 3) and I get the same result when I try to format partition 2 (partition 1 and partition 3 works fine). When I was trying to format partition 2 I got an error from the system: RAID error, HDD in position 0 error. I made again the raid volume and now I don't have the RAID error, but I still cant format partition 2.
The service guys, from the store I bought the system, cant reproduce this bug. They say that everything its ok (hdd, motherboard, everything) either they use RAID or not. Though, they admit that it could be an incompatibility problem between hdds and motherboard and they recommend to change the hdds.

 

Does anyone had this problem?
Does anyone know what hdds I could use with this motherboard in order

 

to fix this problem?

 

Thank you!
